Yahoo Got PR Support From Online News Sites

< Corporates missed the Web 2.0 wave | IDGVV Brings More Money to Vietnam >

Thursday, July 12. 2007

I just stumbled across an article from one of the leading local news site Vietnamnet, put Yahoo as absolute winner in Web 2.0 scene in Vietnam. Ironically Yahoo Vietnam is associated with another competitor, online newspapers Tuoitre.

Some ideas to develop virtual communities and social networks have been realised, for example Blog Viet, Young Generation, Xahoi, Cyworld. Websites for searching for and sharing video clips, mp3 files and information like Clip, Bamboo, Gneet have become quite popular. However, those sites just temporarily focus on entertainment services, perhaps because it is easy to see effectiveness in this area.

Is it error or intention as the author put Cyworld as local newly setup social network.

Vnspoke, Vietspace, Ngoisaoblog, cyworld, and Young Generation and other social networks and communities of Vietnamese have modest numbers of users in comparison with Yahoo! 360 or GooglePage.

Why he put GooglePage the same league with Yahoo360? It should be Blogger (blogspot) along with Yahoo360.

Hmm...yes indeed, Yahoo's popular in Vietnam. The people hardly every mention Google. Vietnamese Cyworld is starting to get more and more popular, but I can't imagine it overtaking Yahoo360 in Vietnam. And I don't get the GooglePage bit either.
