Yahoo! launches a twitter-like site

Yahoo! today has launched its micro-blogging platform Yahoo! Meme. The same product was first launched in Portuguese language and then in Spanish but today they have come up with English version of the site.

Yahoo Meme

You cannot sign-up to this service yet but can leave your email address there so they may send you a sign-up link later on.

It has a nice clean design with much more options than twitter. With text, you can also upload images, videos or your favorite music from your computer or an online link. In your profile you can add a 100-character description with an avatar.

You can search people and follow them to make their updates show up in your stream. The first-impression of the service is good but we’ll have to wait to see if it can break the series of Yahoo’s failures in the social networking scene.
