Interview with Joshua Schachter of del.icio.us

Posted by Zonk on from the sooo-tasty dept.

prostoalex writes "Joshua Schachter, a Wall Street programmer by day, and a del.icio.us hacker by night, is interviewed by Guardian. The article also provides a little background story on del.icio.us, how it got started, and how Schachter convinced Stewart Butterfield of Flickr to add tagging to the photo sharing site. Both del.icio.us and Flickr are currently members of the Yahoo! family."

    I don't think the source code to del.icio.us is open. This is why I use de.lirio.us instead, which uses Rubric: "a notes and bookmarks manager with tagging."
