What is Delicious?
Delicious is the place to collect and showcase your passions from across the web. Save what you like - videos, pictures, tweets, blog posts, or articles - on topics you enjoy and search through others’ collections of links to discover cool stuff!
To get started, drop the Delicious bookmarklet in your browser bar and use it to add links to your account.
The Company
Originally founded in 2003 as a social bookmarking service, Delicious was acquired from Yahoo! in early 2011 by AVOS, a company helmed by YouTube founders Chad Hurley and Steve Chen. The site was rebuilt from the ground up and re-launched in fall 2011 with a new focus on curation and discovery.
Delicious is headquartered in a cozy San Mateo, California office within convenient reach of some of the Bay Area’s tastiest ramen.
