If I search del.icio.us for Shakespeare, I get 6,000 links. All of these are hand picked and tagged by del.icio.us users. This isn’t like Google. Most of these links will be relevent. Even a relatively small number like 6,000 can be overwhelming. [...] [...] Alvin made the point back in January that a closed system limits the number of links.

Scuttle and delicious both have tools that permit importing and exporting. There is probably something that could even synchronize the two (if I looked into it). For group projects I can never get everyone in the group to play by the rules. Whenever I have specified a custom tag, too many people don't use it and I lose people from the group. Having my own server eliminates that problem. I still use delicious. Scuttle and delicious both have tools that permit importing and exporting.
