That’s a relief. This is good chace for me to build my Delicious profile... one of the reasons I didn’t do it before was because of those darn dots!

Good question Bill. To the best of my knowledge they’ve had it for a while. Checked it out on the Wayback Machine but Y! seems to be blocking them :p Delicious.com was first registered by someone in 1995, and Del.icio.us in 2002. Yahoo probably bought the domain name after the acquisition, unless Joshua did before he sold to Yahoo. I like the dropping of the dots. Especially since Y! is trying extra hard to market Delicious beyond the Web 2.0 crowd.

"if only Yahoo would drop the !" Haha! It’s ok in the logo, but as the official name I can’t stand it. I just love it when the Inquirer posts Yahoo stories like: Yahoo! Redesigns! New! Delicious! 2.0!

Me likes and thinks it’s, well, DELICIOUS! Those dots were always very confusing and spoke out (to me) as ’Delete Us’.
