Yahoo Goes To Enterprise Portals

from the natural-extensions dept

Interesting to note that Yahoo is trying to move into corporate portals. It seems like the natural move for them (and they know there's money there), but it will be interesting to see how it works out. Yahoo is famous for being a consumer site, rather than an entity for corporate products. However, My Yahoo becomes the default start page in many corporations already, and I never take sides against Yahoo. They are just too damn good at executing. They do everything right. It's scary.

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team

    Yahoo Corporation

    This makes a lot of sense to me. If you look at My Yahoo and all the features they have been pushing lately (Pager, Mail and Calender), corporations are a great target for Yahoo. With some refinement, you could easily use Yahoo as a way to get all your news, mail, and do group scheduling and instant messaging. They have all the components. Watch out Lotus Notes and Microsoft Exchange.
