Del.icio.us Acquired by Youtube’s Founder

I received an email from Yahoo! that the online bookmark services Delicious will be sold to Avos who happens to be the founder of Youtube (now acquired by Google).

If you use Delicious’ service, you must’ve got such similar email as this:

Dear Delicious User,
Yahoo! is excited to announce that Delicious has been acquired by the founders of YouTube, Chad Hurley and Steve Chen. As creators of the largest online video platform, Hurley and Chen have firsthand expertise enabling millions of consumers to share their experiences with the world. Delicious will become part of their new Internet company, AVOS.
