When word leaked that Yahoo was planning to "sunset" social-bookmarking site Delicious, at least one person was happy: Maciej Ceglowski, the founder of competing service Pinboard.But first, he was terrified.When he came into work that morning, traffic to the site was about 50 hits per second, 20 times the normal level, and Ceglowski was worried that the server would crash. This would have violated his first law of Internet business, which is "never get in the way of people trying to give you money."
