What Is はてなうごメモ and Where Can You Share Flipnotes Now?

はてなうごメモ (Hatena Ugomemo) was the official Hatena-operated online service for sharing Flipnotes made in Flipnote Studio on the Nintendo DSi and 3DS. It no longer works as an upload or community hub. If you want to share, browse, and join a Flipnote community today, Sudomemo (sudomemo.net) is a current alternative: it hosts Flipnotes created and posted from Flipnote Studio on the Nintendo DSi and 3DS, and provides a setup guide for joining.

What はてなうごメモ was

はてなうごメモ refers to the Hatena-run Flipnote sharing service tied to Flipnote Studio. In practice, it was the place where DSi and 3DS users posted their flipbook animations — called Flipnotes — and where others could view and interact with them.

Related names you may see describe the same ecosystem or its community spaces:

• うごメモはてな: the Hatena Flipnote service itself.
• ワールドうごメモギャラリー: a gallery-style space associated with browsing Flipnotes.
• はてな: the company that operated the service.

Because these were tied to official Nintendo/Hatena online infrastructure, the original upload and community features are no longer available. That is why old links, menus, or in-app sharing options from that era do not work today.
