Yahoo's latest website, Yahoo! Tech, debuted with a heavy focus on consumer electronics and a dominant advertising display on the front page.
The lucrative consumer gadget market has another website devoted to its creations and advice on buying and using those gadgets. (We wonder how someone who is old school will be able to make a video about their lack of modern technology and upload it in the first place...)
Yahoo Tech focuses on a very crowded gadget website market. CNet has millions of users and lengthy experience in creating content for those users. Plenty of other sites, from the hugely popular Engadget blog to the online resources of magazines like PC World, also compete for visitors.
To succeed on gaining in that market, Yahoo will have to commit plenty of resources for the long haul or risk being dismissed as a pretender, albeit one with pretty Ajax programming.
