Yahoo! Expands Reach Beyond the Browser with Launch of Yahoo! Go;
Yahoo! Go Brings Seamless and Personalized Communications,
Entertainment and Information Services to Mobile Devices, Televisions
and Desktops

2006 International CES

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 6, 2006--Yahoo! Inc. (Nasdaq:YHOO), a
leading global Internet company, today announced the launch of Yahoo!
Go, a new suite of innovative products designed to extend the
company's reach beyond the Web browser. Yahoo! CEO Terry Semel
featured the new Yahoo! Go products in his keynote today at the 2006
Consumer Electronics Show (CES). Yahoo! Go Mobile, TV and Desktop will
enable consumers to quickly and easily access the Internet information
and services they want across the various devices they use every day.


"Yahoo! Go allows us to free the best of what the Internet has to
offer from the confines of the browser and provides consumers fast and
easy access to the essential products and services they know and
love," said Terry Semel, chairman and CEO, Yahoo!. "Yahoo! is well
positioned to provide a seamlessly connected experience that delivers
the services our hundreds of millions of loyal users want -- whenever,
wherever and however they want to connect."

Yahoo! Go services (http://go.yahoo.com) are designed to make the most
of the functionality available on consumer's devices and will give
them the freedom to go wherever they want and always have their
information and content close at hand. For example, Yahoo! Go services
will allow a consumer to take a photo with their camera phone and
instantly view it on their computer, television or mobile phone
through Yahoo! Photos.

Yahoo! has established relationships with a number of leading partners
to bring the Yahoo! Go suite of services to consumers, including
equipment manufacturers, wireless providers and telecommunications
companies.

"Yahoo! Go will make consumers' personally relevant information
available to them anytime across their mobile phone, TV or personal
computer," said Marco Boerries, senior vice president, Connected Life,
Yahoo!. "By making Yahoo! Go open, we are giving consumers the ability
to easily access not only the Yahoo! services they find most vital,
but also the universe of information available from across the web."

Yahoo! Go Mobile

Yahoo! Go Mobile integrates the Internet into the mobile phone
experience. The new service is designed to combine real-time
connectivity with community, information and content services from
across the web. Yahoo! Go Mobile also integrates the company's
familiar communications services with the phone's built-in e-mail,
messaging, address book and calendar applications, giving consumers
one reliable source for the information they find most vital. For
example, if a user loses his or her mobile phone their contact
information will not be lost -- it will still be available on the web
and could be easily synched with a new mobile phone. Yahoo! Go Mobile
will be available to consumers in select markets in the coming weeks.

Yahoo! Go TV

Yahoo! Go TV will deliver the power and depth of the Internet to the
PC-connected television. By bringing consumers' community and content
such as digital photos and movie playtimes at local theaters and other
personalized services from across the web to the TV, Yahoo! Go TV will
make the television experience even more fun and useful. Yahoo! will
also look to make the company's music offerings available through this
new service. Yahoo! Go TV also dramatically improves the ability for
consumers to navigate and find content on their television. For
example, consumers will be able to use their remote control to see
what's playing at their local theater or share pictures from a recent
vacation with friends, all on their television screen. The company
expects to launch Yahoo! Go TV services in the coming months.

Yahoo! Go Desktop

Yahoo! Go Desktop is a suite of applications that will make it easy
for consumers to keep up-to-date on and interact with their world of
information. Consumers will be able to use the individual Yahoo! Go
Desktop services to connect to the information that matters to them
online, but without having to open a browser window on their personal
computer.

The initial services available as part of Yahoo! Go Desktop will be
the Yahoo! Widgets Engine and a Yahoo! Go Desktop dashboard. The
Yahoo! Go Desktop dashboard will connect consumers' personal content
to their services and their Internet community. For example, consumers
will be able to link their personal contacts to Yahoo! Local, which
will make it easy for them to update their address book with their
favorite local businesses.

The Yahoo! Widget Engine is an application that allows light-weight
files called "Widgets" to live directly on a user's desktop and
perform a wide variety of tasks, such as checking for wi-fi presence
or strength, finding contacts in an address book, viewing a user's
calendar, or checking their latest e-mail. Widgets are built on an
open platform, which allows any third party developer to build and
distribute their own widgets.

There are more than 1,500 Widgets available today and the company
expects to make the Yahoo! Go Desktop dashboard available in the
coming months.
