Yahoo! opens 360 to outside blogging sites: end of blogging strategy for Yahoo?

In what could only be described as either a bold move at interactivity across multiple platforms, or acceptance from Yahoo! that 360 is a failure is a blogging platform, Yahoo! has announced that Yahoo! 360 users can now publish content to their 360 pages from other blogging or bookmarking services.

Interestingly, Yahoo! admits to SiliconBeat that part of the reason is that, basically, they entered the market to late:

Paul Brody, senior director of community products for Yahoo: “Many users have created blogs on LiveJournal or Xanga or elsewhere, and we recognize that,” Brody said. “We want people to be able to have that on 360 and share it with the connections they made on 360.”

Yahoo have also announced that Flickr will be integrated into 360. Whether this affects current Flickr users is unknown.
