Yahoo! Meme

Yahoo! Meme, the tumblelog service originally launched in Portugese, rolled out its English interface.

This won’t pose a threat to Twitter, but to Tumblr.

Especially in Vietnam, where Yahoo! Messenger still plays the center role of communication on the internet. If Yahoo! integrate Meme and Messenger, definitely the adoption rate for Vietnamese users will be high.

Frankly, Yahoo! Meme can’t be compared with Tumblr in product innovation and features, but network effect plus simplicity give Yahoo! a good starting point.

Let’s hope Yahoo! Meme can stand the load of millions, unlike its crippled elder sister Yahoo! 360.

    Not only Meme is a threat to Tymblr but also with lots of micro-blogging clone sites in Vietnam since everyone knows Yahoo has a strong Vietnamese user base and their website is often become very popular although there’re not a lot of Yahoo marketing campaigns resides in Vietnam. In your opinion, how do you think Vietnamese business could take advantage of Meme and reach Vietnamese consumers? What’s the best way?
