Looks like my timing was off as now the Internet is talking about Yahoo’s vision of a new social network, Inbox 2.0. In an effort to keep up with the meme, I’ll just link to the NYT post and drop in an excerpt.

Yahoo, of course, has had many different takes on this over the years: its member directory, Geocities, Yahoo 360. It recently started Yahoo Mash. But none of these is quite right, Mr. Garlinghouse said. Mash is simply an experiment, not a product being readied for mass promotion.

Glad we can all participate in their experiments.
