Slow start for Yahoo! 360
I must say that Yahoo! 360 does not "do it" for me. Every time I try to understand what it's about, I get confused and bored and my mind wanders to backgammon instead. One of the reasons for this is that I don't have (nor want) many friends with Yahoo! memberships, or who would want to write about their lives to the general public, so being connected online through something like this becomes a bit pointless. But if it doesn't grip me, there will be many other people failing to be gripped. Maybe this is why so few people have taken up their membership. So far, there are fewer than 3000 people on 360 (you can search for everyone aged 10 to 90). Of course, it is early days and the viral effect can make growth move quite quickly, but still ... I like the way they integrated Yahoo! Groups, though.
