This is funny. Tim and I woke up this morning thinking about the contract job we've been working on. Then we saw the delicious thing and I wrote this post. Not expecting anything major. But 3 hours later, we're on the HN front page. And our invite queue is jammed with requests.
What the heck. Tim and I just decided to pull out our credit cards, remove the invitation thing and open up the registration.
A big Thank You to the HN community. You've made our day.
I see you get a lot of traffic - cannot authorise my delicious account for the last couple of hours. Is there any way you can distribute the traffic? I guess you wouldn't want to use other people's hosts due to passwords being required, but can you spin up some cloud vps type of hosts to cleanup the queue the next days and import more links?
You don't seem to have any flattr/paypal/whatever link on the website, but I'd be happy to click it, if it meant more accounts migrated ASAP :)
Also, just adding an idea: if you provide a delicious-compatible api endpoint, people could reuse the existing browser plugins - is there any chance you could do that?
We're working on EC2 instance to catch up! We've been flooded. Yes, a delicious-compatible api endpoint is a brilliant idea. Already in our etherpad. Thanks.

We just launched!
