MICROSOFT SPINNING OUT WALLOP…

So Microsoft is spinning out Wallop, which is cool. Karl Jacobs, a serial entrepreneur, will be the CEO of this new entity. What’s cooler is that I wrote about how Wallop should be opened for business along with some other suggestions last February …

Wallop means getting a flogging or getting your ass kicked. eg: “He took a big walloping from the bully”.

Hope these guys don’t get “wallopped” by any other big social networks . (There aren’t that many big ones out there, are there? )

[...] wallop（我老婆 —— 中国式的幽默）是微软与2004年创建的一个基于六度理论的社交类网站。你能够在上面进行 MP3 与图片的共享。现在它的商业版即将在这个夏天对外发布，同时域名将从现在的 mywallop 变成 wallop. [...]

Check out the dancing pink box on their home page.

Seems that they took the guy who created the office paperclip with them.

[...] As for Wallop itself, it’s yet another of the social networking sites like MySpace that hopes to attract eyeballs and presumably thereby sell advertising. Micahael Arrington notes that the current mywallop.com is not what the ultimate site at wallop.com will look like and: I’ve seen a bit of what they plan to offer, and I’ll say that this is not another “me too” social network offering. And there are a number of unique business model twists that they aren’t announcing yet. The launch is scheduled for this summer. One interesting thing to note: the current Wallop site is all-Flash. hmmm. [...]

[...] Microsoft has taken Wallop, its social networking experiment site, and spun it off as a seperate, venture capital funded startup. The new Wallop is led by CEO Karl Jacob, a veteran of both Microsoft and startups, according to Michael Arrington. The startup begins having already received a first round of funding, with Microsoft retaining a minority stake. [...]

[...] Microsoft funded Wallop is preparing to launch in an effort to enter Microsoft into the “hey MySpace, we’re cool too” category along with Orkut & 360. Despite Techcrunch’s Michael Arrington saying that Wallop is not another “me too” social networking offering and CNET claiming that “the Wallop approach will center on trying to help people find ways of expressing themselves online that more closely match the way they interact in the real world. Photos, videos and other user-generated content are a part of the company’s approach.“; I believe it’s going to be a bit difficult for Microsoft’s Wallop to shed the “Johnny Come Lately” image.

Interesting..

myWallop have the ability to share stories, photos, songs, RSS Fedds and much more.
Sure, there are lots of services out there that gives you pretty much the same but the unique of myWallop is
without a doubt the really good looking interface and the usability of the site.
Can’t say that myWallop is perfect but it have some good qualities and
uploading songs to mywallop really is fast,easy and the streaming is crazy! best that i ever tested.

For Flash addict like me i have to say that it’s one of the best application that i use in that technology,it’s smooth and beautiful.
(who said that Flash is out?)

I do hope that the “new” Wallop will know how to reserve what is already good and to fix and improve the stuff that don’t.
It will be refreshing to see Wallop becoming a business model, certainly something I’ll wait to try.

*for me one of the huge BUG now is that it’s not support Hebrow.

Got a love these Adobe/Go Beyond Ajax/Flex ads I’m seeing on this site. Perhaps they should let people know the Flex platform costs $$$$$$$ while Ajax is free

Maybe “wallop” stands for “all the other names were taken.”

[...] 由于原来的wallop地址是mywallop.com，这个新版的地址将是wallop.com，现在这个地址已经可以打开，并且有了一些简单的说明。mywallop吸引我的是它的全flash界面，据说这个特性将继续被wallop商业版保留，事实上现在的wallop.com的首页已经是全flash制作了，而且相当的酷，我希望在其正式发布后能够比mywallop的速度要稍微快点。另外消息来源还报道说这个新的商业版将带来一些全新的概念，而不再是一个简单重复后的作品。 [...]

[...] Just as I thought Flash will be taking a backseat in the Web Two Oh space, I see this mention on TechCrunch of a new social networking endeavour (actually a spin off of an older project), to be launched soon called Wallop. Not much is being disclosed about Wallop yet, except that it is significantly different than the existing Wallop project. I’ve seen a bit of what they plan to offer, and I’ll say that this is not another “me too” social network offering. For one thing, this is an all Flash application. And there are a number of unique business model twists that they aren’t announcing yet. The launch is scheduled for this summer. [...]
