DRM Free MP3 From Yahoo

November 12th, 2007 I am sick and tired of Yahoo Messenger Spam initiated primarily by Myfreecamhost and now joined by few new initiates too. Everyday, at the most inppropriate times I will get one or more messages from Yahoo Messenger asking me to watch some random female's webcam on myfreecamhost for free (obviously scam).

November 5th, 2007 Either Yahoo! Messenger sponsors spammers (not that would surprise me) or Myfreecamhost has found a loophole in Yahoo Instant Messenger. I am daily receiving half a dozen, most likely automated, Yahoo instant messages from various random email id's on myfreecamhost.

October 23rd, 2005 After my ill-fated attempt to use latest version of Yahoo Instant Messenger (The Malware), I manually removed all traces of Yahoo Instant Messenger from my system. One thing however persisted - their search engine plugin for Firefox.

September 7th, 2007 You too may have received a sad notice from Yahoo Photos: Dear Angsuman, Thank you so much for using Yahoo! Photos. Before we go, we can help you move your photos to Flickr, Yahoo!'s other photo sharing service.

March 22nd, 2006 Yahoo lanuched a service to provide local telephone number for $2.99 per month. The calls will have to be initiated from a PC, but can be made to traditional landline phones and cellphones.

February 17th, 2006 Yahoo released an UI library for web applications, developed using Javascript and AJAX. It provides some nifty components like dual-calendar, tree, drag-and-drop, slidedrs etc.

April 13th, 2008 Yahoo Instant Messenger is notorious for sending unsolicited commercial instant messages and from questionable sources. The yahoo instant messenger client doesn't provide an way, last I checked, to stop such spams.

July 25th, 2008 Much has been written about Yahoo Pipes and lots of how-to tutorial. I was pleasantly surprised to see the ease of use of Yahoo Pipes and how easily I could create a simple pipe to get data in RSS feed format.

March 1st, 2005 Too bad their sample request url's do not work! Their width of services is more than google - image, news and video search capability in addition to standard web search. They seem to think that location based search is a separate category.

January 30th, 2008 Type the following as a WordPress comment and see the fun: <a href="http://www.google.com/" rel="nofollow">This is www.yahoo.com link</a> This should ideally cause the whole phrase (This is www.yahoo.com link) to be hyperlinked and pointing to google.com. Unfortunately WordPress sees it as two links and a plain word: "This is" is hyperlinked to www.google.com "www.yahoo.com" is hyperlinked to www.yahoo.com "link" is not hyperlinked at all Did you read about the other hyperlinking defect?
