Google wants those Delicious Bookmarks !!



Are you a Delicious user? Want to export all your precious bookmarks which cared to collect for all these years? No worries Google is here to help you out. The official Twitter account of Google tweeted yesterday informing about the new Delicious import tool which imports all the bookmarks from Delicious to Google Bookmarks.

Indeed a smart move from Google considering the vast number of bookmarked links in Delicious systems. With the "deal" to buy/sell Delicious is still under wraps but Google is not waiting for the lines to be drawn. Delicious already being put on sale ,according to a leaked Yahoo confidential paper, has been losing a lot of its users who are fearing the service may shut down any day. Delicious was previously being linked to a buy offer from Digg. However that deal broke down when leaked reports showed that Yahoo wanted to "sunset" Delicious services. There is definitely no doubt that Delicious is not seeing much green off late.
We do hope Delicious will get a honourable exit rather than a harsh shunting from the Yahoo family. 


Have you used Delicious? Will you import those bookmarks to Google bookmarks?
