Wow. I woke up this morning to read the news that del.icio.us, my favourite tagging site that I cannot live without, is part of the yahoo family which includes flickr.com.

I think this is an excellent move for Joshua. I have been on del.icio.us for nearly 2 years now and I have seen alot of changes that have helped how I used del.icio.us to organise information and serendipitously find interesting content that others have tagged.

I would if there will be any tie-ins between flickr and del.icio.us. In addition, will the next step for yahoo be to add technorati?

Relevance: del.icio.us has joined the mainstream. Yahoo is creating a diverse tagging community. How will google react? I am really looking forward to the next tagcamp now. What does this mean for the other web2.0 tagging applications?

Technorati tags: , , , ,
