Delicious Enters China With New Localized Social Media Site

International information service website Delicious has announced its formal entry into the Chinese market with the launch of its localized site Mei.fm.

Formerly known as Del.icio.us, Delicious is a social bookmarking website for storing, sharing, and discovering web bookmarks. The website was founded by Joshua Schachter in 2003 when it launched a social bookmarking mechanism and tag-based organization of information.

In 2005, Delicious was acquired by Yahoo and the website was then sold to YouTube co-founders Steve Chen and Chad Hurley in April 2011. Currently, Delicious is a major product of Avos Systems, a new Internet company led by Chen and Hurley.

The website will reportedly have improved software and system for designs, bookmarks, and management links.
