Yocial–They Mixed Business and Pleasure
Amazing, Awesome, Genius, I just don't get it, Web 2.0, Service April 1st, 2008
They should have listened to the old adage…
Yocial’s whole shtick is having a single site to have both work and personal friends.
Now your colleagues at work can see how you spend your drunken after-work hours. And your friends can see how you’re a corporate drone from 9:15 to 4:45. Great. What innovation!
Update: so, apparently, you can keep your two sets of friends separate. I’ll stick with facebook and linkedin personally.

I just checked out Yocial.com and found that there clearly is a separation between professional and social profiles. I was easily able to control who can access which profile. so now all my friends and social contacts, are accessing my social profile but my colleagues are just able to access my professional profile. I kinda liked the approach.

I do prefer facebook but that may just be because I am a College student. I wonder, do you think my site is a sucky startup?
