That doesn't make sense. I can't see anything Delicious could offer Pinboard, aside from the domain name.

It's a bunch of bots.
i believe delicious is free so you'd still need to convince those users to switch to a paying model.
Nah, the transfer would generate a bunch of headlines, which in turn would translate into a bunch of new signups. I suspect Pinboard's signup spike graph is like a seismograph of Big Bookmarking's asshattery moments.
