Honest question; what valuable/useful services does Yahoo still offer?
I haven't logged into Yahoo mail in more than 2 years.
I do see that finance.yahoo is still a good site -- but hardly an entire business.
They dont have core technology in search any longer, right?
Ill have to look into what S4 is... ok that looks interesting. Is it competing with such things as DataSift? -- well its OSS - so not a revenue stream for them, yet...
I am seriously trying to understand how they would rebuild a business. Serious pivot is needed it would seem?
- Zev 16y ago136 Million unique visitors[1]. Even if its not completely accurate, its still a very, very large number. I know plenty of people who use Yahoo as their homepage, for email and for search -- even if it isn't powered by Yahoo anymore, it still gets plenty of uses. 1. http://siteanalytics.compete.com/yahoo.com/ http://siteanalytics.compete.com/yahoo.com/
- mikebo 16y agoI really like Flickr still. I worry about what will happen to it longterm.
- iampims 16y agoDelicious, Flickr, Yahoo! Mail, Yahoo! News…
- carbocation 16y agoThey actually have great fantasy sports offerings.
- Encosia 16y agoUnless GMail has overtaken it very recently, Yahoo Mail is still second only to Hotmail in terms of user base. The last I saw, both were ahead of GMail by a fairly large margin.
- patorjk 16y agoI use Flickr, Delicious, YUI and Yahoo! Pipes. YQL also looked interesting, but I've never used it.
- S_A_P 16y agoI actually think that YQL is an awesome tool that has alt of value to developers. I actually scrape a hacker news feed to my personal site with YQL.
