Even the name verification server is burping
Can’t yah feel the vibe?
That’s the sound of a 100,000 rushing into the next big thing - Yahoo 360. Over the coming days people’s impressions will be revealed on this hybird social network/blogging tool.
Just to be clear. This is what I call a DLA (digital lifestyle aggregator.) No they didn’t get completely right- but it does successfully combine these two latest technology aspects - which each have been hailed as new ’spaces’ (marketplaces, trends, what have you.)
But to me - they both were destined to be together. I can remember insinuating that to Joi, Barak and Anil and getting blank stares. I sure hope they realize NOW that all software is about people - and just proving a dinky old “about me” page - ain’t gonna cut it.
It’s great that SixApart gave LJ a new home - but EVERY 6A product has to have the notion of realtionships, personae, meta-data, messages, groups, the commons, etc. But that woudl come AFTER they provide basic WYSIWYG editing.
But it’s not like Yahoo 360 has WYSIWYG - either.
So who’s gonna do all things for all customers?
Another thing Yahoo 360 has really blown it on - is Groups. I guess sinec they had something called Groups - they thought they were done. WRONG!
Take a look at what Tribe.net calls a Group. They call it - a Tribe.
It’s key - and Yahoo 360 ain’t got that. But they will.
They’ll also eventually merge it with MyYahoo.


Marc,
The DLA term describes it precisely. Nice post. I logged on with the invite you sent me and because I didn’t remember and couldn’t retrieve my Yahoo Id, had to form a new one. If I were to open my “blog” up to the public I would have to tell people to go to my new Yahoo name which is pretty silly as it involves my love of dumplings.
