Yahoo was once a very very popular search engine. It still is, but is starting to lose its former flame. It was once unimaginable that Yahoo would lose a good portion of its users, but that thought is easy to concieve now. Yahoos plan is too make Yahoo more orginized and more personel. Yahoos biggest competitors are myspace, facebook, and the most popular search engine, Google. Yahoo also plans to create a front page based on popular searches to help save time. To me, this seems insignifigant due to google's homepage, iGoogle. iGoogle lets people design their webpages based on your personality, so everyone can save time by making their front page suited to what they're own likes and dislikes are.
Yahoo plans to start an application service like Facebook. But I think that even if both sites have applications, facebook still has ultimately more to offer than Yahoo. So even if Yahoos applications surpass that of Facebooks, Facebook will still be more popular due to things like status's, the wall, and groups.

One hope left for yahoo is in their e-mail service. Part of the new plan for Yahoo is updating their e-mail to make it much easier, more efficent, and more advanced. You will be able to drag e-mails with an address onto a map service to recieve directions and other things too. A demo of this was shown to an audience of people and co-founder David Filo stated “We are not that far away from a lot of this.”
