Yahoo has released an API for Meme, the company's microblogging service, which is still in beta. If you're not familiar with Meme, it's kind of like Yahoo's version of Twitter, minus the enormous amount of hype.
Yahoo has introduced their own version of Twitter. For now, at least, you can only use it in Portuguese. It’s called Meme—borrowed from a word coined by Richard Dawkins (he used the word to describe a human gene that causes selfishness).
Facebook’s popular “25 Things About Me” meme has gone viral and has even hit mainstream media (it’s in Time Magazine!). And since you have to have a Facebook account to participate, this simple request has driven a lot of new signups and traffic to the site.
