Gah! I just wrote a lovely long comment and then my phone crashed. Let's try again...
Anyway, the gist was: I use Delicious to bookmark not only fic but all kinds of other things, like recipes and articles and craft resources. And not everything I bookmark has the option to favourite on the site (e.g. when I did my MSc research I bookmarked stuff that I then used as my corpus). And then, when I come back to my bookmarks later it's often from a different computer (I often bookmark interesting-looking fic if it shows up on my flist while I'm at work, then read it on my phone later when I'm not at work). So overall it's much easier to have everything in one place I can access from anywhere.
Either way, Delicious is now claiming it isn't closing after all, so. I hope this is true. :/
(Sorry for any typos btw - sending this from my phone, a device I don't entirely trust, mainly because I can't see where it keeps its brain...)
