Yahoo recently announced plans to target Altavista, Buzz, and Delicious for elimination. The decision comes as part of a broader strategic shift for the company, aimed at streamlining its portfolio of services and focusing resources on key business areas. In this article, well take a closer look at each of the targeted services and the reasons behind Yahoos decision to shut them down.

Why is Yahoo targeting Altavista for elimination?

Altavista was once one of the most popular search engines on the internet. However, in recent years, it has been overshadowed by competitors like Google and Bing. With declining user numbers and increased operating costs, Yahoo has decided to pull the plug on Altavista to free up resources for its core businesses.

What will happen to Buzz?

Buzz was Yahoos answer to social networking, allowing users to share news and updates with their friends. However, the service failed to gain traction in the crowded social media space. As a result, Yahoo has decided to shut down Buzz and redirect its resources towards more promising ventures.

Why is Delicious on the chopping block?

Delicious was once a popular bookmarking service, allowing users to save and share their favorite web pages. However, as the digital landscape has evolved, other bookmarking platforms like Pocket and Pinterest have emerged as more popular alternatives. Yahoo has therefore made the tough decision to sunset Delicious and focus on its core offerings.
