Yahoo Launches Video Site

Published on June 01, 2006
Yahoo has launched its own video website to take advantage of the soaring popularity of online video, writes CNET. The Yahoo Video site includes a search box at the top of the homepage; users can also browse by category or user-generated tags. If a video resides on another site, the "play" button takes the viewer to that site; otherwise, users watch the video on the Yahoo site, on an embedded video player. Some Yahoo Video pages will display banner ads, and eventually video ads.
