gigaom.com — In a matter of months, expect both Yahoo and AOL to come up with their own news feed offerings, likely to be embedded in their more popular web services. While Yahoo’s working on a life-streaming product called Yahoo Updates, AOL’s new offering that takes a cue from Facebook Connect is being called “Site Social” internally.

By the time AOL does something Twitter-ish, no one will want to do it anymore.

This is why Yahoo! and AOL seem like such bland companies these days. Could they possibly have chosen names that were any less creative? "Yahoo Updates", for crying out loud!

"Please don't try to replicate something that is actually rather good and working properly."Twitter style Facebook is not good and is working like s**t.

IM is unicast. Twitter is multicast. It also has a built in SMS gateway.

Out of all these social network sites,facebook stands in first. now, they are providing all new ,interesting,valuable applications to its members.simply carbon copy a social network from others,yahoo and aol will not get much membership bases.Everyone should be par of excellence.

I used to use those disks as pretend ninja blades when I was younger.When the aol triangle spun around, it looked cool! I threw them at my brother. He threw them back. Touching story.
