This is the name of Yahoo's Corporate Blogging site. Yahoo has been an esteemed social media and communications provider for years. Many have Yahoo e-mail and frequently visit yahoo's website for the latest news updates. This corporations has a valued report and continues to move forward, nonetheless. Yahoo's corporate blog entails the individuals that have founded yahoo and continue to make progress daily. Their corporate blog has details of their newest goal for internet social media, video. Even though they are top rated as a search engine, email, and news site, they now strive to be a top-dog in the internet video streaming business. They mention the new project of creating yahoo original TV-quality web shows. They hope to influence a predominantly female audience with these new episodes soon to be aired. Yahoo also strives to include concerts and an array of other new videos to reach their audience quickly and efficiently. This blog is written well and speaks to the younger generation(which happens to be their target audience). Yodel includes internet lingo, but includes a sense of corporate professionalism that is to be admired. In this blog they openly speak of their competition and are glad about it. They mention that there may be other large titles currently dominating the video business, but, with enthusiasm, want to jump in. In her final statements on Yodel, Erin McPherson (VP of Yahoo) makes note of the fact that they will fail, but that is the beauty of the challenge. And in failing, they can fix their mistakes and move forward to a stronger understanding and a better targeted video structure. Overall the corporate blog of Yahoo is well written and speaks of being less than perfect as anyone could expect. They admit that they can have shortcomings, now and again, but continue to grow and hope to impress in the coming years. I think this blog is an improvement over a stiff "business formal" attitude and could agree that it would be a great example of the benefits of blogging in corporate media.

I think it would be helpful if you included a link to Yahoo's blog in your review in case someone reading would want to visit the blog.
ReplyDeleteI'm extremely surprised to read that an executive VP of a company would so baldly state they were going to fail at something they are undertaking. They might be taking a down-to-earth attitude and transparency a bit too far! Instead of making me feel that this is a company I want to do business with or utilize, it makes me want to find someone else who has faith in their own products!
I'm a little confused by some of the statements in your review. What do you mean by "...has a valued report and continues to move forward nonetheless?" A valued report of what? And if it's valued, why nonetheless? You say you "could" agree that it "would" be a great example... Your agreement depends on what? It would be a great example if Yahoo did what in their blog?
It's easy to get bogged down in details and I know this assignment wasn't as easy as it seemed. Maybe having someone objective read your review before posting would help? I have my son read everything and tell me if it makes sense to him and he catches a lot of things that don't stand out to me. I know what I'm meaning because I've studied the subject but he doesn't and that helps me in revising my writing so that other people can understand where I'm coming from. Just a suggestion! Consider it constructive criticism please, I certainly don't mean it personally.
