Has anybody been using Mash lately? Is it a soft launch before they drop a huge bucket o’ cash on an advertising or viral marketing campaign? Are they frantically upgrading the features and functionality like they claim? The more I think about, the more it seems like it was launched while only half-baked.

Great photo for that post.  My mash pet is dying also...Yahoo Mash seems like just another MySpace copy with a few extra features.  It’s also buggy...

@PocketSEO - Thanks, for some reason feeding and petting my Mash pet only makes him more sad. I think a little experimentation with Mash Pets might be worth a post on its own. Then again...maybe not.@AndyBeard - Let me know if you try it out. I’m interested in a wide variety of opinions on this. Surely Yahoo is not just going to give up on it, but it doesn’t really seem like they are putting a ton of effort into it either. Not yet anyway.

I used it for about 5 minutes and got bored.

HAH!  How timely... I read an article about Yahoo! still in the runnings for Facebook and tried to remember the name of this product, so I could login.   Even after I logged into my old Yahoo! 360 account by mistake, I still could not remember the name.  As much as I love Yahoo! (if you understand that I am the person who will cheer for a well thought out Basketball play, even if it doesn’t end up in a basket, you will understand my love for Yahoo!) I can’t really see the reason to use this even over their Yahoo! 360 product.

@TimDineen - My thoughts exactly. Nothing about it screams "Facebook-killer", or even "Orkut-annoyance". @Natasha - Let’s hope they make something more compelling that we won’t feel so sorry about cheering for. Thanks for the comments.
