What happens after Yahoo acquires you
Wednesday, February 23, 2011 · Topics: delicious, delicious-demise, yahoo
From 37signals: Whether it’s Flickr, Delicious, MyBlogLog, or Upcoming, the post-purchase story is a similar one. Both sides talk about all the wonderful things they will do together. Then reality sets in. They get bogged down trying to overcome integration obstacles, endless meetings, and stifling bureaucracy. The products slow down or stop moving forward entirely. Once they hit the two-year mark and are free to leave, the founders take off. The sites are left to flounder or ride into the sunset.

Traffic is stagnating or dropping, depending on which analytics service you look at. Founder Joshua Schachter left long ago in frustration, and is now at Google. All Delicious really needs to do is let me bookmark sites without a lot of distraction. It hasn’t been good at that for a long, long while. · Go to Ditch Delicious, use Pinboard →
