Delicious - like Mr Wong which I liked - was one of the these social but anonymous services. Some people may have chosen their normal pseudonym of choice and even shared it with friends, others may have not.
IMHO that's also the reason why Facebook was winning above all the other Social Networks, it was "real" and not anonymous (or pseudonymous). Virtually all popular social but (kind of) anonymous services of the past didn't survive or at least not make it to today's mainstream: forums, MySpace, ICQ... Reddit is kind of popular but almost exclusively used by techies or people considering themselves nerdy.
I wonder if one could make a modern Delicious, with mandatory Facebook connect or something. Not sure though if that would still work out of privacy concerns. Actually one might consider Pinterest something quite close to it.
