Well, the time has come to talk about the stupidest app in the world. Yo. An app that raised millions of dollars and all it did, was let you send Yo. No text, no images, just Yo.
I remember when I was starting my first company, these guys announced their round, and my immediate thought was- if they can raise money, anyone can.
No. But that doesn’t mean the app wasn’t stupid. I’m not the first one to poke at it. So, let’s talk about it, here’s the story of Yo.
