Yahoo Experimenting with Blogs?

Posted by Hemos on from the trying-to-make-a-buck dept.

Tee Emm writes "Sven Latham reports on his Yet Another Blog that Yahoo is (probably) experimenting with its blog services for its general users. The test bench is in Korea and may be followed by an international service on yahoo.com. On the main Yahoo site, blogs.yahoo.com as well as blog.yahoo.com both are active though they take you to yahoo groups interface."

    Okay, you can hate all you want (that whole freedom of speech thing again), and some of what you said is true (or at least has a seed of truth in it somewhere). America has lots of issues, and many good points which you are quick to ignore. There is no question that our society has many issues and inequalities, but I am proud to live here reqardless. America is due for a large shift in social and economic policy, something we are good for every few decades. I can't say when or what is coming, but something will galvanize the people and change will follow. But any chance you had of being taken seriously was killed when you dragged this jewel into the mix...

    its appalling "sitcoms" with no grasp of irony

    Sitcoms? Sitcoms are an international grievance? Do you think this might be Osama Bin Laden's problem? He's a big Benny Hill fan and really hates it that Seinfeld gets so much play in syndication while Benny is no where to be found? Jesus, way to lose all focus...
