Looks like someone needs a hug. Or at least an awareness that Y! 360 extends far beyond being a blogging tool. As a blogging tool it is great for the average Joe (hey that's me!) who doesn't want frilly, gaudy, overly dangerous options to muck up their pages with. Instead we want the ability to simply, safely, easily maintain a blog. Y! 360 is more in tune with the social networking of nearly every other Y! property such as our Flickr streams, Y! Photo albums, Y! Local reviews, bookmarks (categorized by tags btw), instant messenger relationships, music, and curricula vitae. And now, we can also share our favorite RSS feeds, which may include blogs we have already started elsewhere but more importantly feeds from netflix queues, Y! My Web, del.ico.us, 43 Things, Upcoming.org, Y! News topics, etc. (including earthquake monitoring stations!). Really, it's quite extrordinary! “or acceptance from Yahoo! that 360 is a failure [as] a blogging platform”

Wow! Looks like someone needs a hug. Or at least an awareness that Y! 360 extends far beyond being a blogging tool.

This makes sense for Yahoo to be the one pushing for breaking down the walled garden; after all, they have nothing to lose given they don't have a social network. And after all, maybe that is part of the company's strategy: don't buy a social network because that puts you in the bind of having to protect the walled garden. Instead, move towards what seems like a historical likely scenario, which is exactly what Jon's blog post talks about here: http://www.minorityrapport.com/2005/07/breaking_out_of.html The above poster makes a good point about Yahoo not letting content out. Without knowing for certain, it seems that if Yahoo can use RSS to permit publishing from outside sources to its site, then why couldn't those affected services do the same thing? On a bigger issue, is this just a step in the direction of letting users pull off their profiles and inputting them into other services? Less reputable companies and fly-by-nighters have tried this and mostly failed, but more because they were too ambitious in their mining of other social networks. If they had stuck to letting users simply transfer their profiles, it may have worked out fine.
