Delicious is a social social network mainly for bookmarking web service which includes storing, sharing, and discovering web bookmarks. In 2003 The site was founded by Joshua Schachter now it acquired by Yahoo in 2005.now this site has more than 10 million user and every day 3 million bookmark are shared.
Name-
The “del.icio.us” domain name was a well-known example of a domain hack, an unconventional combination of letters to form a word or phrase. Del.icio.us and delicio.us now redirect to the new domain, delicious.com.
In an interview, Schachter explained how he chose the name: “I’d registered the domain when .us opened the registry, and a quick test showed me the six letter suffixes that let me generate the most words. In early discussions, a friend referred to finding good links as ‘eating cherries’ and the metaphor stuck, I guess.”
On September 6, 2007, Schachter announced the website’s name would change to “Delicious” when the site would be redesigned. The new design went live on July 31, 2008.
