by on September 5, 2007 in Social Media, Yahoo! (YHOO)

Robyn Tippins announced last night that Mybloglog now utilizes Yahoo! ID. That’s quite nice! I’m waiting and hoping for Yahoo! to do two things with Yahoo! ID: 1) Allow me to be in Yahoo!

by on August 31, 2007 in Online Recruiting, Recruiting, Social Media, Yahoo! (YHOO)

While I have not seen or used the reported Kickstart, Techcrunch described it in the following manner: “Yahoo is reported to be working on a new social networking service that matches college students to employers.” (emphasis added) This is not a knock on Yahoo!, but this is not solving the actual problem that the entire [...]
