We did hear about rumors that Yahoo would kill MyBlogLog very soon. However, the MyBlogLog team re-affirmed that this would not happen or it would be transferred to a third party partner. But, it is clear now when Yahoo officially sent a message to all Mybloglog users saying that they would terminate it by May 24, 2011!
It is actually a sad news to those who have been with Mybloglog and if you have a lot of friends there, I am sure that you would loose a lot of traffic from this termination. Anyway, it is out of our control and I am sure that Yahoo has taken this into a serious consideration before sending out the official announcement as below:
Looking at this service announcement, we will all know that there will be no more Mybloglog for us to connect and share our updates but I have to admit that Yahoo has its own rationale to make this decision, a not easy decision at all. There are still many other great free services our there that have similar functions like MyBlogLog such as Technorati, Blogcatalog…etc.
I hope that the termination of Mybloglog service will save a lot of resource for Yahoo and they will have more budget to invest in other services or improve their current services too.
