Yahoo has acquired Blink, a mobile application that allows users to share messages that self-destruct.
The app will reportedly be shut down in the coming weeks so that Blink’s seven-person team can work on Yahoo’s “smart communication” products.
Blink made the announcement on their website, saying they “look forward to the possibilities that will come from bringing the Blink vision to Yahoo”.
“We built Blink because we believe everyone should be free to show the same honesty and spontaneity in their online conversations as they can in person.”
