Facebook hits Yahoo! Mail
| Share | Tweet |
Yahoo, ever since it came into existence has been introducing various social networking applications in its list of services, first it was chatting then messenger, next yahoo dragged orkut on its homepage and now its facebook’s turn. Yahoo mail users will now be able to access their facebook accounts using their mailbox. Moreover scrolling through a friend’s facebook profile is also facilitated by this new yahoo application.
Though not competing with facebook and the like, this widely used web e-mail service has been trying to earn itself the title of a social networking site. Not putting a full stop here, and with increased efforts, yahoo is bringing drawing more services for its users. This integration shall take place through a special partnership between the two firms.
Though not being pushed broadly as of now, these new features – updating the facebook status via yahoo mail and also accessing photos of contacts; will be hitting only a few selected markets initially but will be opened to wider market within a couple of months.
Yahoo has also launched a facility that enables importing Facebook contact’s e – mail addresses via the contact importer. Though this is an ordinary feature, it is likely to receive a warm welcome from yahoo mail users as well as from facebook users.
The best part of the entire news is that facebook shall grant access to your data without you having to fill a separate form, all you will be required to do is click on “add to Facebook” in the status section of Yahoo Mail’s What’s New page and signing in using your Facebook account. Once the accounts are linked, users can type a message in a status box that appears in Yahoo Mail and choose to post it on Facebook, on Yahoo or both. If they choose to post it on Yahoo, the status message shows up on their contacts’ What’s New page in Yahoo Mail.

11.09.13 at 11:09 amHeya,Wonderful post, although i’m more interested in what will come out of this google vs facebook social network war. I have not discovered much news on it recently, which likely suggests that its not really that far off, but i’ve got a sense its likely to mean several large improvements to social networks. In my opinion, i’d personally rather facebook came out of the battle still in the lead mainly because google’s already big enough, and they currently hold an excessive amount of data on everyone. I do not believe both can exist though, either google’s social network will control or totally crash. Just what does anyone else believe?
