Yahoo buys del.icio.us – keep it free!

As TechCrunch reported, Joshua Schachter has announced the sale of Del.icio.us to (who else) Yahoo. Personally I’m thrilled Yahoo got del.icio.us, but I’m hoping they don’t make it into a walled garden like they did with the My Web 2.0 product. Currently a user can export their data from del.icio.us, but they can’t do that from My Web 2.0. I’ve written many times about this issue – I’ve even emailed My Web 2.0 senior managers, urging them to open it up. But still it remains a closed property‚Ķ not very Web 2.0 🙁 So I hope Yahoo doesn’t ruin a good thing and close off del.icio.us. I’m sure they won’t. More details on my ZDNet blog.
