Long time no blog

October 24th, 2007

Update: Our social network yoMedia has been renamed to yoFriends to make the distinction between the website and the company. Links have been updated.

We've been really, really, really busy working on our upcoming project: making the technology behind yoMedia available as a platform for other companies to license. Media conversion to mobile and web formats, as well as file hosting and social features like rating and commenting will be made available through this platform.

Because we had to build a number of things from scratch, we could apply all the experience we gained while building yoFriends.com to make them more robust, faster and easier to use.

We are currently working with a number of A-brands that are going to use our technology in their systems and websites. Once their services launch, we will of course blog more about it. Just know that we are really ambitious about it and that the services made available at launch will just be the beginning. Expect to hear more within the next few months.

Once we have the platform up and running, we will rebuild the yoFriends.com website to use our new platform. We have a number of ideas on what we want to do with it, including making it a lot simpler to use. There are just too many 'hidden' features right now.

On a totally different note, we are glad to see that even with the low amount of media coverage we have received in the last few months, we still have a steady flow of users.
