晚上登录Mybloglog的时候,发现mybloglog网站上面多了一个
,原来的登录框也取消了,代之以Yahoo!的登录界面;Yahoo!早在今年1月份的时候收购了Mybloglog,或存在某种合作关系,有待证实。幸好,他们创建了集成的界面,通过文字引导,可以使用之前的账号登录。
前段时间发现,其实Mybloglog是与其他站长交流的很好的一个平台,特别是博客站长,很多知名的博客的都在上面创建了交流社区,如知名的网络赚钱博客JohnChow等;通过Mybloglog,可以了解网站与博客的最新内容,认识更多的站长,包括国外的站长,甚至可以洞察一些网络最新的发展趋势,一些国外的站长认为,他就是站长们的MySpace,我认同这种说法。
现在就去体验一下吧,说不能给你带来意外的惊喜,进入Mybloglog感受一下。

1、1000万美元:雅虎确认收购Mybloglog
01月10日据新浪科技消息: 据来自国外博客的消息,雅虎近日确认,该公司已经收购了博客社交网站Mybloglog.com。早在去年11月,就有消息称雅虎收购了 Mybloglog,但一直未得到确认。Mybloglog于去年7月开始运营,主要为博客、网络出版物或MySpace网页的读者提供社交网络服务。例 如,浏览同一博客的人可以通过 Mybloglog成为博友。Mybloglog还会纪录读者的行为,例如他们阅读哪些文章,或者转往哪些博客,并将这些信息出售给广告客户。到目前为 止,雅虎尚未公布收购Mybloglog的价格。但据消息人士透露,收购价格略微超过1000万美元。
雅虎产品战略副总裁布拉德利·霍 罗维茨(Bradley Horowitz)表示,Mybloglog未来可能会作为一个独立的实体存在,但用户将可以使用自己的雅虎帐号访问Mybloglog,就像访问 Flickr图片共享网站和Yahoo Answers信息服务一样。他说:“通过收购Mybloglog,我们拉近了读者同发行者之间的距离。每位发行者都希望了解自己的读者,而读者也有互相 交流的需求。”
据Mybloglog董事会主席斯科特-拉斐尔(Scott Rafer)称,该公司已经覆盖了约4.5万个博客,共有约3.3万名读者提交了照片和个人信息(例如博客网址)。他预计,这些博客每天吸引了近100万 名读者。Mybloglog和雅虎都认为,从长期来看,社交网络还有着更大的价值。
2、Confirmed: Yahoo Acquires MyBlogLog for $10 Million
Valleywag started a rumor in November that Yahoo had bought MyBlogLog - Yahoo then denied it and everybody backtracked. Another story popped up on MarketingShift early today, adding a $10 million price tag - that post was quickly pulled, suggesting that it was either incorrect or too early.
As it turns out, they were just a little too early, since Forbes has just confirmed Yahoo’s purchase of MyBlogLog, the Florida-based blog communities service, for $10 million. That price doesn’t come from Yahoo itself, but from “knowledgeable sources”, they say. Bradley Horowitz, VP of product strategy at Yahoo, said that MyBlogLog would remain a separate entity (much like their other social acquisitions) , but you’ll be able to register with your Yahoo ID. The MyBlogLog communities will also be integrated with Flickr and Yahoo Answers, although Forbes isn’t at all clear on what that means. MyBlogLog is currently on 45,000 blogs, according to founder Scott Rafer.
I’m yet to be convinced by MyBlogLog, although it certainly has potential. The issue right now is that it hasn’t really moved beyond the tech crowd (they’re also making inroads into real estate blogs they say), and while you can currently post these widgets to MySpace, it remains to be seen whether they can master that market, which is radically different to serving geeky bloggers.
The people making these purchase decisions, of course, are geek-oriented: Yahoo is unlikely to buy a popular MySpace add-on site, despite the fact that these sites have massive mainstream reach. Their other social acquisitions, Flickr and del.icio.us, also cater to this same tech-savvy market. But I think MyBlogLog could continue its viral growth in other blogosphere verticals if they master one thing: shifting the benefits to the blogger. At the moment, having a MyBlogLog widget seems to be of more benefit to MyBlogLog than you, the blogger, particularly for large blogs. They’re currently experimenting with ways to shift that balance: integrating the community pages into your blog itself and including avatars next to comments. Perhaps they’ll even consider co-branding, so that bloggers can enable more interaction between their existing communities. This may only be necessary for the bigger blogs, however, since small blogs are already likely to gain (rather than squander) traffic by posting a MyBlogLog widget.![]()
