Delicious.com is Now Also D.ME

Simplifies Saving and Sharing for the Website

PODGORICA, Montenegro--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Delicious.com, which helps people discover and collect the Web, is now easier to access and use thanks to their new .ME domain name, d.me.

“Simplification and personalization are important to our vision for Delicious, and working with dot-ME helped us on both fronts.”

The shortened .ME Web address makes saving links easier and streamlines profile sharing, for example d.me/username. Delicious also added a way for people to save links by emailing the URL to a personalized @d.me address - particularly useful when saving from a mobile device.

“We are thrilled to be working with Delicious to further develop the popular Web service,” said Predrag Lesic, CEO of the .ME Registry. “Having the shortest domain name possible will be an asset to Delicious and its users.”

Delicious lets people save and stack their favorite links to make them accessible from any Web-enabled device. The website was purchased earlier this year by YouTube founders Chad Hurley and Steve Chen, who then re-built Delicious from the ground up and re-launched it in September.

“We understand the power of an easy and memorable domain name,” said Chad Hurley, CEO of Delicious. “Simplification and personalization are important to our vision for Delicious, and working with dot-ME helped us on both fronts.”

“Since the launch of dot-ME, we have been very passionate about the ways a dot-ME domain name can enhance end user experience,” said Lesic. “It is exciting for us to have this kind of synergy with a company who gets what we are doing and understands how a dot-ME domain name can enhance a great product.”
