YouTube Founders Buy Delicious from Yahoo

The founders of video-sharing site YouTube have bought bookmarking service Delicious from Yahoo. 

Chad Hurley and Steve Chen will use Delicious as a key part of their next net venture called Avos. 

The startup is thought to be based around tools that help people get to grips with the vast amount of information generated by web sites and services. 

How much the pair paid to acquire Delicious has not been revealed.
