After Yahoo! acquired Flickr, it merged the Flicker accounts with the Yahoo! accounts but Delicious kept far away from this process. Now finally Delicious accounts are merging with Yahoo! accounts.
Associate Delicious Accounts with Yahoo Accounts

The Merging process is so simple any easy. Just login to your Delicious account with your username and password. After that go to "Settings" > go to "Accounts" > click on "Merge with Yahoo! account" > Click on "Start"> use your YahooID and password (assuming that you're not already logged in) and associate your Delicious account with your Yahoo! account.


Points that need to be remembered:

  • The Yahoo! account you sign into will forever be associated with your Delicious bookmarks. If you have more than one Yahoo! account, make sure you sign in using the one you want associated with your Delicious bookmarks.
  • You'll not be able to sign in with your old Delicious username and password after this account merge.
  • Your public bookmarks be shared via Yahoo! Updates.
  • Your public bookmarks will now be shared with people beyond the domain (Delicious). You can disable this option if you choose.
  • You will retain your vanity URL that you were using to access your bookmarks via: http://delicious.com/your_xyz_url_
