Yahoo Comes Full Circle

As if I didn't have enough things to keep track of... Yahoo announced its new social networking site, Yahoo 360, which I predict will give a lot of the other sites out there a run for their money.

What makes Yahoo different? Their 165 million registered users who have already enjoyed countless other features on this portal site. Plus, I think Yahoo's services will strike a cord with a broader base of users, whereas personal sites like Friendster and MySpace, or even business sites like LinkedIn and Ryze, are focused on the more hip and savvy users and tend to alienate the masses.

As a small business owner, also be aware of some of the features Yahoo plans to roll out, which could directly affect you:
  • Recommendation Lists (books, movies, products, etc.)
  • Link sharing
  • Business ratings and reviews
