Yahoo may soon enter the social networking scene, according to comments made by Tim Cadogan, Y's VP of search. Speaking before a Stanford Business School tech conference audience, News.com reported yesterday that Cadogan addressed
a fairly new feature from Yahoo that lets people in remote locations search simultaneously by using IM environments in Yahoo instant messenger. "This is just the beginning. A lot more will come from that," said Cadogan, a former executive at Overture Services who joined Yahoo when it bought the commercial search pioneer.
With Google already moving into this arena, it would make perfect sense for Yahoo to be following right behind.
