Recently, I’ve noticed that Del.icio.us has been getting slower and slower. I read somewhere (I can’t remember where) that Del.icio.us’ user base has been growing like weeds over the past few months. To meet this new demand, Del.icio.us has been installing a bunch of new “hardware”:1. However, it seems that this new hardware is not enough to keep the service snappy.

Speed on the internet is life. Why do you think Google is so popular? Del.icio.us better get a handle on this problem — and fast (bad pun semi not intended).

As they say at Yahoo!,
You
Always
Have
Other
Options.
