Import delicious bookmarks into Google

I have been searching for ways to import delicious bookmarks into Google. There are some scripts out there that you can use to achieve this, but it requires you to give your google password.

I don't know about you, but I'm not too comfortable running a script with my password in it, so here is what I did:
  • Export your delicious bookmarks into an html file (go to settings, export)
  • Import this into your IE- Install Google toolbar
  • Import IE favourites using the toolbar

There is actually one downside: The delicious tags are actually in the html bookmark file, but when importing it to IE, they are lost, hence my bookmarks in Google don't have tags/labels.
