Yahoo opens lab to improve services
In an attempt to build upon and improve its search, e-mail, instant messaging and other online services, Yahoo has formed a research lab to focus its efforts.
[blockquote]The lab represents new territory for Sunnyvale, California-based Yahoo as it approaches its 10-year anniversary in April.
The move also served as a reminder that Overture -- acquired by Yahoo in October for $1.8 billion -- offers other assets besides a highly profitable index that distributes text-based advertisements tied to the requests entered into online search engines.
