@Shahid: With all due respect, and I point this out with humility, Yodel Anecdotal is ranked as a top 1,000 blog on Technorati (hitting that milestone after only 10 months in action). So we’re feeling pretty good about this tool serving its purpose of informing, engaging and letting people outside the company in on what happens around here outside of our press releases. In fact, I believe you’re one of our loyal readers! Hope you’ll continue to stop by.

~Do audio podcasts have voice fonts or sound avatars to identify various participants if its a podcast with many people and hours?

-Will blogs have module app windows where a blog visitor can
*see what video or music the blogger is listening to at that moment?
*visitor can participate in the bloggers web search live and at privacy level set by the blogger.
*visitor connects in a module with the blogger via webcam, mobile cam or broadcast feed.
*visitor participates in a live audio/video podcast in a module or just checks out the static archive.

*would a blog post be series of saved mobile messages from that day? Will a group chat transcript on a topic discussed become a blog post? Will blog post’s be created through live online collaboration or done like a wiki? Would a blog post be filtered, auto edited text rss content for a topic? Would a blog post be information about activities the blogger has done the entire day.

-Will one uploaded blog be available across various mediums?

~If expressing is part of blogging, will a blogger in the future act (action,work) to blog or will his act (action,work) be his blog?

Doreen Bloch,

Wow, as if I thought Yahoo was not wasting its time before. Look at the responses you guys get to the site. Do me a favor, walk up to your manager and ask, “why the hell are we focused on this crap when clearly our company is in need of repair?” If your manager says it’s a good use of time then you need a new manager. Clearly, Yahoo’s focus should be on generating revenue, not pointing out information that gets a comments. Doreen, you are speaking to a tiny audience and your work is fruitless. Maybe you should help out the marketing/sales group.

Why don’t you mention 360?
Don’t know know anything about it?
Its Yahoo’s blogging spot for its masses, so sorry that you don’t know anything about it here I’ll give you a link
http://360.yahoo.com maybe you could take a look and see that Yahoo has its own blogging spot even though by the looks Yahoo itself has forgotten all about it.

I didn’t know obama had a blog

You’re right… not sure if that makes me want to vote for him more, or less…
