Yahoo! Acquires Blo.gs
Posted by Hendry Lee on 06/15/05 in Blog News, Blog Tools
Yahoo! has acquired blo.gs service, and is running it now. How can it impact current users, especially related to privacy issue?
Yahoo! obviously has the resources to run and improve blo.gs in pace with the incredible growth of blogs (and syndication in general), and in talking with them it was also clear that we had some of the same vision for the future of the service and the ping/notification infrastructure.
Before the acquisition, blo.gs has warned its users last month that the service is going to be sold and user data is to be transferred in the process. Concerned users should delete their account. Blo.gs has kept its promise by keeping the privacy policy intact even after being sold.
