Yesterday Yahoo announced onePlace, “a revolutionary mobile content management solution,” to enable consumers to “better manage the wide selection of content available across the Internet.” The idea is provide a single point from where users can access all their favorite content whether it’s static or dynamic. That being said, Yahoo’s onePlace includes such features as centralized and open content management from where users add or link any content they want, personalized views (Collections, Categories, Pulse, Favorites), dynamic content (sources) updates, mobile RSS reader, and smart organization which enables users to group content and create “rich experience around a specific topic.” Yahoo! onePlace is expected to launch in Q2 2008.
At the same time, the search/portal giant announced the upcoming availability of Yahoo! Go 3.0 for a number of European countries, as well as several new European-based widgets that will be accessible across Yahoo!’s mobile browser and client-based offerings. Within the next two months, users in France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK will be able to access localized services from new mobile widget development partners including Eurosport, XING, eBay, MySpace and Dopplr.
