Yo Gets the Only Review You Need to See: Y?

With tens of thousands of users, millions of communications, and over a million dollars of new funding – the hottest app on the block is Yo.

For some reason, it has flown to the top of the app charts and people are completely, straight-faced serious about it. They’re even throwing money at it. I don’t know what this says about society, our culture, or the purpose of existing or lack thereof – but I think Stephen Colbert has provided the only review of the app that anyone needs to care about.
