Yahoo tastes delicious

In a shocking-yet-inevitable move, Yahoo! have bought out my favourite multiplayer bookmark system. I still remember the initial excitement on IRC when Joshua set this up, and it feels quite odd to have been using the site through its whole growth, from fun idea to useful site to startup to web 2.0 phenomenon to Yahoo! acquisition.

On the one hand, it's nice to see that someone can still make money on the web by having a good idea and implementing it; on the other, the second the interface includes ads or requires me to have a Yahoo! ID, I'm out of there.

Flickr, I'm looking at you here.
