Yahoo 360 Reviewed

1 views

While, I like what I see so far and I think 360 is very compelling as a personal blogging tool, it has some serious shortcomings that most veterans will not like. Also, I am wondering if I gave Yahoo! the idea for this project way back last June when I speculated how Google might merge Blogger and Orkut into a "trusted network" of bloggers. Hmmm...

WebProWorld Anyway, what I like about 360 is how how I can easily use it to share photos, moblog, connect with friends and family and find new friends. I also like how I can share my music, my reviews and more. It's a perfect tool for consumer expression. It's also relatively easy to use. However, some of the navigation is confusing. As compelling as Yahoo! 360 is for newbies, it has virtually zero application as a professional/business blogging tool. It's far too simple. You can't easily turn features on or off and it lacks trackbacks and customization. I guess we can't expect it do everything that the big platforms do. In short, Yahoo!'s first blogging effort builds on Geocities on steroids rather than a true blogging platform I can recommend. The recent Jeremy Zawodny also has invites for Yahoo 360 available. To possibly receive one from him his 360 page. Senior Vice President with Micro Persuasion weblog, which tracks how blogs and participatory journalism are changing the public relations practice.
