Yahoo purchases xoopit
According to Reuters, Yahoo purchased Xoopit.
Why does that interest me? Well, Yahoo has been floundering around for a few years trying to figure out what it should be doing, what exactly it is. They have been running behind everybody else straggling into each category at the tail end. Now, they seem to have started to look at who uses Yahoo and what they can do to keep those users.
Who uses Yahoo? Women use Yahoo. (Lots of women) 500k women are using the following Yahoo Group:
One of the publishers that I talked to said that a women's magazine was their most popular magazine ...a cross stitch magazine. Popular means profitable and that is what every company is trying to do... be profitable.
Yahoo is buying products (Intentionally?) that help women who use yahoo. Are they finally focusing on women and working to keep them loyal users of Yahoo?
