Yahoo Mash not what it was "mashed" up to be!


We are not sure if you were paying attention but since some time back, yahoo was planning on making their stake in the social networking industry. We got a chance to play around with the site in 2007 and it was actually a nice concept. The features they offered were the typical social networking types such as profile, images, messaging users etc. They boasted a virtual "giga pet" like animation feature where the user had to pet, feed and play with their pet to keep it alive. That feature was pretty cool but nothing new. But what we were particularly excited about was the ability for users to modify each other's pages, for instance if someone does not like your page layout they can add to the design or take away from it. That feature alone made it fun for us to use and would have been game changing had Yahoo let it out the gates. Those of you like us who were waiting for the official release of Yahoo Mash are probably wondering what the heck happened?! Well the scoop is they have canceled the project for certain reasons we will never know of obviously. However we have an idea what happened, they could not develop enough momentum hahah!! The proof is here. Well R.I.P Yahoo Mash, maybe they will try to resurrect it later hahaha!! We want to hear what you think. Drop a comment or rate this review!
Yahoo Mash gets 5 thumbs down from us for canceling the project before it got out.

This has been another WebNR exclusive!! WebNR over and out!!
