Do You Yemmz?


It is not everyday we can witness new social website emerged here in Malaysia, particularly from large company. Yemmz, the new social website owned by TM is another attempt to build online social community, taking opportunity of our ‘craziness’ toward social networking. But how far can it go?
Yemmz itself is nothing new to some who follows the TM closely. It has been around since Nov last year based on some of early blog post that can be found from search engine. The news circulating on the net stating that it will be officially unveiled this March.
Over that past few years, TM has been busy rolling out it’s HSBB project, aim to upgrade broadband quality and service in Malaysia. Part of the project is also to develop and deliver contents to the end users, together with selected partners.
Yemmz could be a small part of the project that TM hopes to kick it off, along with major part of HSBB project, which is the broadband service itself. By positioning Yemmz as part of HSBB, Yemmz could gain some popularity from the publicity that HSBB earned when the project finally unveiled to the end users this year on certain areas.
Yemmz itself is just typical social networking website. If you familiar with Facebook or Friendster, you can master Yemmz in a day or shorter than that. At a glance, Yemzz seems to have all recipe it needs to success, except the sustainability . Trying to be different from established social networking websites, it does offer forum and marketplace which seems open to every members.
It is best to test it to it’s full extent to conclude if Yemmz is worthy option to established social websites. One thing for sure, mammoth task is waiting the Yemmz team to grows this website bigger.
