The experiment seems to be over for Yahoo. Yahoo has decided to shut its one year old social networking site. No reason has been given by Yahoo for dissolving social networking site Mash. The company sent emails to its subscribers regarding the decision and wrote that it was grateful for its subscribers, and informed its users that they would not be able to see their profile after September 29, 2008.
Initially, Yahoo Mash was touted as competitor of Facebook, not only for same segment services, but for its features similar to Facebook. However, trade analysts opine that it is not unprecedented in Yahoo's history. Earlier too, the company has shut its experimental social network sites like 'Mixd' within some months of inception. Similar was the fate of Yahoo 360, another social network site.
