Yahoo! Tunes into Blogging and Social Networking

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the welcome-to-the-club dept.

aarthi_r writes "The social networking wars have finally begun, with Yahoo! coming out with it's very own Yahoo! 360, which combines blogging, social networking, music, mobile connectivity, local searches (for restaurants and businesses) as well as photo-sharing. With stiff competition from the early starters like Orkut it will be interesting to see if Yahoo! will succeed."

  1. What should we call the duopoly? by bigtallmofo · · Score: 4, Funny

    Since Yahoo and Google appear to be encroaching on each others territory now, I guess the only remaining thing to do is to name the duopoly between Yahoo and Google. Windows/Intel has always been called Wintel, for instance.

    I prefer Yahoogle, but Goohoo isn't bad either.
