Does Blogging + social networking sound like something we’ve heard before? It seems familiar but at the moment I can’t put my finger on the killer app that has merged the two successfully. Yahoo is hoping on March 29 that they can make a splash in both areas.

Yahoo Inc. is preparing to introduce a new service that blends several of its Web site’s popular features with two of the Internet’s fastest growing activities - blogging and social networking. The hybrid service, called “Yahoo 360,” won’t be available until March 29.

I would say the link blog + social networking goes to Stumbleupon which I’ve been using for over a year now and find quite useful, but it will be interesting to see what Yahoo has come up with on this front. I haven’t found much practical use for social networking sites like Ryze, Friendster and Orkut.

Thanks Dave Winer for the link on the Yahoo 360 gig.

Did this post make you go hmm?
