Yahoo - Twitter, Together As One!
Last night, the leading social media news provider, Mashable.com learned that Twitter and Yahoo struck a content-sharing deal. Here is what that exactly entails:
This Yahoo-Twitter partnership will be comprehensive and more encompassing than Twitter’s search partnerships with Google and Bing, but now Yahoo tells Mashable.com that the integration will focus on three primary areas: - Access to your Twitter feed on Yahoo: On Yahoo Mail, Sports, the homepage and other Yahoo properties, you will be able to check the most recent tweets of your friends. - Ability to update status from Yahoo: Yahoo will become a Twitter client, allowing you to update your status from multiple locations on Yahoo. We’re not sure if this is going to be through widgets or another method. - Yahoo Search and media integration: Public Twitter updates will be integrated throughout Yahoo Search, News, Finance and Entertainment, among other properties.Yahoo will have full access to the Twitter data firehose, so you can expect real-time updates in Yahoo Search, among other integrations. It will use tweets to improve relevancy, freshness and search results, as well as “drive deeper user engagement.”Look for this lauch later this year!!
