Yahoo has announced plans to close its Mash social networking site.
The struggling service will close on 29 September, according to an email sent
to users.
Yahoo is advising all users to save any data they want to keep for the
future.
Following the takedown, any links to Mash pages will redirect to Yahoo's web
site.
The takedown will come almost exactly one year after the beta service was
first launched.
Mash added a twist to the social networking concept by allowing users to edit
each others' profile pages and manually move different elements of the profile
page.
Although it initially earned positive reviews, Mash was never able fully to
catch on with users and compete with the larger networks.
The company said that other Yahoo 360 services will not be affected by the
Mash takedown.
