Yahoo buys dialpad!

Yahoo buys dialpad! 06/17/2005 03:50 PM

Rumors last leek led to speculation that Skype was being purchased by Yahoo, today it was announced that Yahoo purchased dialpad a relative unknown VOIP service. I am hopeful that Skype will not be purchased by Yahoo. Considering all of the quality employee's they have sucked out of Redmond recently the rumor last week did not make sense. [Y ahoo]

Yahoo buys Musicmatch 09/14/2004 12:54 PM

Yahoo's could not do it on their own so they had to buy one of my most favored music vendors. I have always been a big fan of Musicmatch and now that Yahoo has just bought them out I am sure they will ruin it. I stopped using Yahoo and brands they own when they went to a pay model on listing your site with them. I wonder if my Lifetime upgrade of Musicmatch will be honored. [News.co m]


Yahoo Buys Flickr


Yahoo Buys Flickr 03/22/2005 04:23 PM

Yahoo! has agreed to buy Ludicorp Research and Development, owners of photo sharing website Flickr, for an undisclosed sum. Flickr enables users to personalise photo collections on the web, where they can store, sort, search and share their photos. Flickr will remain a standalone site for now. The company's employees, however, will relocate to Sunnyvale later this year.

Earlier this week, Yahoo announced Yahoo 360. The service combines a new blogging tool, along with several longtime Yahoo products, including instant messaging, photo storage and sharing, and Internet radio. It also offers tools for sharing recommendations about places to eat, favorite movies, music and so on. Both the 360 move and the acquisition of Flickr and parent company Ludicorp Research & Development come as social networking and blogging draw increased interest from rivals. Microsoft in December added a blog product for its MSN Web service, called MSN Spaces. Google, meanwhile, owns Web log service Blogger and social networking site Orkut.

So, we actually heard about this a couple weeks ago, when someone (who knew) passed on the fact that Yahoo had bought Oddpost in an attempt to fight back against the Gmail craze. Now, though, the deal is official, so it's okay to talk about it (though it had been hinte d at earlier this week). It's really not that surprising, after all. Yahoo knew they needed to upgrade their email, and Oddpost has a great reputation for their interface. You can be sure that Yahoo wasn't the only company sniffing around and debating whether or not to buy up Oddpost. While it's probably not going to be the lead in most stories, it is quite interesting that one of Oddpost's nicer features is an integrated RSS reader. Yahoo keeps talking up the power of RSS, and perhaps this will allow them to make a bigger commitment. However, in all likelihood, it was just the mail interface that fascinated them. It seems like a good move by Yahoo who needed to do something.

It was brought to my attention today that Yahoo is copyrighting the RSS feeds for those that are setting up Yahoo 360 accounts. Some are already refusing to use the service because in a sense Yahoo now owns your content.

This may be a oversight on Yahoo's part and I hope it is, I will probaly use their service anyway but probably not the blog portion and give them some time to answer these issues. [Yahoo 360 Copyrights Personal RSS Feeds]

Obviously, this is separate from the free web-based email service from Yahoo, but 2 Gigs is bar far the most storage available to date, worldwide."
