Ya know, I post this morning about the cool things Yahoo is doing in connecting their users, and how I think Google is doing more around services, and web services than around user inter-connection.

And then Google goes and acquires a company like Dodgeball just to prove me wrong. Ok, they’re not out to prove me wrong, but Dodgeball is the definition of a service that connects users.

If you haven’t heard of Dodgeball (they were getting a ton of press late last year) you need to check the link above and follow it to it’s home page. It’s all about using text messaging via cell phones to connect with friends, and more imporantly, friends of your friends to meet new people. Cool stuff.
