It appears we have quietly launched Mash, our latest go at this social networking thing. It's sort of halfway between Facebook and MySpace, with some rather random additional features. Most notably, whilst MySpace will let you customize your profile with custom styles and colours, and Facebook will let you add random modules to it, Mash lets you do both those things -- but it also lets other people do those things to your profile.

\n\n

I'm undecided about Mash's potential. It's certainly a lot more fun than 360, which seems scheduled to bite the dust soon. I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm having great fun randomly changing the skins of other people's profiles. If you want an invite, contact me directly or in the comments.

And I don't think it's really a secret that the name is our second choice after somebody released something else with the same name.

Update: So I made my profile look like this site, and then I started getting carried away. Oops!

So it turns out I have an ancient membership to the Nokia developer forums that I forgot about. As such, I've got into the beta of Mosh, Nokia's new mobile social networking/file sharing venture (not to be confused with the rumoured Yahoo! project of the same name).\n\n
