Update http://www.webomatica.com/wordpress/2008/03/12/yahoo-update/ Entertainment and Tech Digest Wed, 08 Feb 2012 16:18:38 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Mike http://www.webomatica.com/wordpress/2008/03/12/yahoo-update/comment-page-1/#comment-21188 Mike Wed, 26 Mar 2008 05:07:09 +0000 http://www.webomatica.com/wordpress/2008/03/12/yahoo-update/#comment-21188 Such a shame. Just today, I was explaining the advantages of storing your photos on Flickr, instead of a site like Facebook (which downsizes your photos). Problem is, you apparently have to sign up for a Yahoo! email address to get a Flickr account. I see Yahoo! taking steps to open things up, such as implementing OpenID, but it would be really nice to see them open it all up a bit more. If they were more daring, then they might win people over a bit more who appreciate that sort of thing. If Microsoft ended up buying Yahoo!, they'd end up with something they wouldn't be able to use, anyway. I hope Google steps in. Such a shame.

Yahoo will merge either with Microsoft or with Google... Google seems to be coming up with its own offer for which it asked Yahoo to stay quite on Microsoft bid One thing is for sure… Yahoo will merge either with Microsoft or with Google… Google seems to be coming up with its own offer for which it asked Yahoo to stay quite on Microsoft bid
