YFly, a social network focused on the 13-25 year old market, has launched several new features, including online games and Smack Talk, providing even more social entertainment for its’ members. 

YFly has announced they are working with several major websites, including Perezhilton.com and YTMND.com, to gain exposure to one of their new features called “Smack Talk,” which allows its members to upload a photo, create a character and make it talk. According to YFly’s President and co-founder Drew Levin, “We are dedicated to driving value to our members as we deliver the most entertaining social experience online.”

The release of YFly 2.0 includes: 

• Competitive Online Games
Where members compete with their friends for top scores and the pride of being # 1 in the most addicting online games.

• Super Media Player
Each member has their own Super Media Player where they can collect their favorite songs and videos throughout the site with the click of a button. Members can customize the design of their Super Media Player in the YFly Style Studio and display to their friends on their YFly profile or embed anywhere that accepts html code.

• Updates Feed
A real-time feed of the most recent activity of all your friends on YFly.

• Smack Talk
