    Yahoo working on a Technorati killer

    This according to Ian Forrester, via Scoble:

    Jeremy Zawodny was very interesting and pointed out a couple of things.

    • The rumours about Yahoo working on a Technorati killer, are true.
    • The aggregator will support Microformats and RSS Extensions, including some of Yahoo’s rivals
    • Yahoo will be REALLY opening up more APIs. Zawodny failed or kept very quiet about the Konfabulator take over
    • Yahoo are counting RSS/Atom as a type of API not just as a syndication format

    It seems that the young blood infusion at Yahoo is giving Google and everyone else a run for their money. It’s refreshing. And gives us a bit of cheap thriller suspense. What will Google do next? Technorati getting acquired? How many RSS search/aggregator roadkills? What’s with this Twin Peaks soundtrack?
