Capessa was produced by P&G for Yahoo's Health section and went up Dec. 21.
Videos there include "How I Lost My Baby Weight--Julie's Story" and "Mommy Meltdown--Leiah's Story." The content-development partnership with Yahoo is the biggest social-networking deal Yahoo has done
with a marketer.
The People's Choice Community site kicks off Wednesday, a day after CBS airs this year's People's Choice Awards, produced by P&G and in a ratings slump.
The sites will have a slicker look than well-established social-networking sites, reflecting the older audience of 18- to 49-year-olds that P&G is aiming for, compared with the teenagers and 20somethings that crowd MySpace. As a result, on Capessa, instead of encouraging women to post homemade videos, P&G will offer them the chance to be interviewed by P&G's production firm.
