Yahoo! Mash

Yahoo! Mash is yet another social networking site and it’s not getting rave reviews. After checking it out for myself, I don’t see anything here that would draw people away from the uber-popular MySpace or the fast-growing Facebook. The site is uninspired, offering the standard Q&A, a place to do a "shoutout" (called a blurt), and other modules that should be impressive (like integrating your flickr pics or MyBlogLog-like visitor list), but, for some reason, still leave me dry. I feel like I’m on Yahoo 360 with a new skin. There’s also this weird smiley face thing that is "My Mash Pet" (okay, I kinda liked it…when I fed it, it smiled at me). Still, this site isn’t worthy of the hype surrounding it, which is, of course, why I’m blogging about it. That all being said, if you must see it for yourself, I have some invites.
