Trunk.ly technology will eventually be folded into Delicious.com, the revamped de.licio.us site, AVOS said. Trunk.ly collects every link that users share or "like" on Web sites such as Twitter, Facebook,Canadian Jakke and LinkedIn, and stores them in one place to make them easy to find, much like Delicious is used to socially store bookmarks.
The purchase means that trunk.ly will stop accepting signups effective immediately, and that the site will only be operational for another two months with minimal support. After that, the company said,Canada Goose Parka the site will be shut down. Users will be able to migrate their links, however, by visiting the Trunk.ly export site and exporting them to another service.

On Monday, AVOS said that users had picked up D.me as a redirected shortcut to delicious.com,Canada Goose Trillium and that users would be given a unique d.me email address that could be used as a destination for emailed links.
"It became clear from the first discussion with Trunk.ly's founders that our visions for the future of bookmarking and discovery were closely aligned," said Hurley, chief executive of AVOS, in a statement. "Their technology and insights will accelerate link-saving and searching capabilities in Delicious."
Tim Bull and Alex Dong, who co-founded trunk.ly, thanked their users in a blog post.
"We never expected that 12 months ago we would grow Trunk.ly to the success it's become and we really do owe that to you,Canada Goose our users who have helped us, supported us and promoted us along the way," the two wrote. "We really hope you'll join us at Delicious, we're very excited to be working with them, there is a great team there with ambitious plans and together we hope to build the best way to discover and collect the web."
