Honestly, this data should be free, and available to researchers who work on social tagging.

You should contribute your bookmarks to a public data set. http://bulk.archive.org has offered to host such data sets. Someone should build a webservice that allows you to easily share your delicious tags. If no one steps up, you can simply email me your export (turian at gmail), and I'll package up whatever I receive.

Here is a delicious data set, for those who are interested: http://arvindn.livejournal.com/116137.html

I have some other social tagging datasets in my file. Let me know if you'd like me to dig them up.

Any suggestions on where to take my bookmarks? I used delicious a lot.

First export your bookmarks, just in case: curl -k --user user:passwd -o backup.xml -O 'https://api.del.icio.us/v1/posts/all

Second Find a new home.

I'm using now Diigo but better look around to see which one of the different services suits you.

Really sad to see Delicious go. One of my most used services :(

See http://www.shareaholic.com/services for a list of over 50 bookmarking services.

Anyone worked out how to import delicious to Firefox yet, with tags and all? If you import the HTML they give you it doesn't import tags so I have a huge bunch of untagged bookmarks :(

Funny thing. I did this minutes ago. The resulting html file was 5.5 MB. I guess that tells how much I've actually used Delicious. Sad to see it go...
