Yahoo 360°

Yahoo 360° is a personal communication portal similar to Microsoft MySpace, currently in beta testing. It integrates features of social networking, blogging, and photo sharing sites.

 

Besides the basic function provided by blog tools, a user may create a personal web site, share their photos from Yahoo Photos, maintain a blog, a list of local reviews, profile information, and see which friends are currently online. Yahoo 360° also, by default, features a “friends updates” section, under which each friends' latest update is summarised. Yahoo 360° also goes a step further than standard friend connections by permitting the creation and/or joining of forums under which users that share a common interest can talk. These are operated using Yahoo Groups, and the integration with Yahoo 360° is used for this feature.

User can also view latest activities from friends. It also adds the feeds that users may include RSS feeds for themselves and others from their favourite sources.
