CEO Jerry Yang told the CES 2008 crowds about Yahoo's plans to make its Mail client a social tool with all the widgets one could want.
Web browser? So 1994. How about a mail client that knows your social networks and will give the most important messages and people priority in the inbox? Yahoo's latest Yang suggested Yahoo Mail could tap the Facebooks and MySpaces of the world in a way to make the email client more "personally relevant" to its users. Important people, apparently, would not have their messages languishing in the inbox, awaiting attention, because Yahoo would bring them to the user's attention. Also, Yang talked about the big push Yahoo has been making into the mobile world. We think Yahoo believes it can win the kind of share of usage on phones that Google enjoys with search and ads on PCs. Millions of mobile users worldwide makes that a goal worth achieving.Yahoo's Future: Smarter Email And Mobiles
