I think one of the smartest things  Yahoo! could do right now would be to soup-up del.icio.us.  I’ve often thought about how easy it would be to use del.icio.us’ simple tagging infrastructure and RSS feeds to store and distribute Social Network information.  But it’s too darn slow!  If querying del.icio.us was lightning-fast, I bet there would already be interesting applications using del.icio.us as a backbone.
