But it’s not another social network.

User friendly sites make online life so simple. The latest move by Yahoo aims to ease your online pain and keep pace with the social networks in one simple move. Open Strategy is designed to make sharing Yahoo users information simpler, on both Yahoo’s website and sites that use Yahoo features. But this isn’t an attempt to build a new social network it’s simply a move to make things more ’social’. Hmm, very clear!

Previous attempts at ’social’ functionality, such as MyYahoo, Mash and existing profiles will be rolled up into the new offering.

Don’t expect to see these new features until at least 2009. Yahoo needs to get the buy in from independent software and web services developers before they can make a serious offering.
