Yahoo outsourcing Jajah ?
Wednesday, April 30th, 2008 | Tech news
Yahoo has announced a deal with Jajah following that it will use jajah voice technologies for VOIP. Yahoo will not use it’s in house technology and instead do it using jajah technologies, everything right from calling to billing. 97 million people use yahoo messenger and this large user base can be properly used to get some good bucks. While jajah has got 10 million users in 2 years time. This deal will benefit both jajah and yahoo. It’s something like, yahoo would readily take the profits back sitting by just forwarding the calls via jajah.
Now, this is again one place - why yahoo fails. It wont use its technologies to leverage the potential of this huge user base. It could have well competed with other VOIP players with this huge user base already present. But i suppose yahoo doesn’t want to compete in this niche with several players like skype offering one of the best PC-to-Phone and other telephony services.
