If there is one E-mail service that competes with Google that is Yahoo and one search engine that dares to stare at Google well its Yahoo too. Yahoo has recently added a few applications that be used form within one’s mail box. Yahoo was previously offering a number of goodies in My Yahoo like a Calendar, weather forecast etc etc. But this thing is way ahead. this is something new and worth a try.
.io is an application that has been developed by drop.io. This lets users attach files up to 100 MB in size. But before you click the Allow just read the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy which says that your email or files might be stored by the drop.io team! Anyways privacy issues aside it’s a nice utility to have.
Automatic Organizer is an application that scans one’s email inbox and after that organizes, prioritizes and summarizes the emails stored. This helps users prioritize their emails from real people thus making users lives easier. In order to use this service you will have to Agree to the sign in permissions. After that the system will scan your inbox for real emails, coupons, receipts, shipping notices etc and will send you an email giving the details.
Yahoo Calendar Oh well haven’t we heard about this one before? Yes we have it is the same old Yahoo Calendar for managing one’s appointments.
Edit Photos. If you ever need to edit photos in your Yahoo Mail Inbox, Edit Photos from picnik will do it for you. In short one really doesn’t have to download the photos and edit them in an application like Photoshop etc. Simply launch the application in your Inbox and click Connect. After the usual Yada Yada sign in permissions one can opt for the premium version which costs something like $2.08 per month but why bother with that? The application will scan your Inbox for emails containing photos. From then on editing any pic is easy. One can rotate, crop, resize, sharpen, remove red eye and edit exposure besides saving and sharing the pics.
Evite is the electronic invite that lets one send an invitation from Yahoo Mail. The Invites list includes Birthday party, Bachelor party, Brunch, Lunch, Dinner party etc to name a few. A nice app I must say and very impressive too.
Flickr is an application that has been developed by Yahoo. It lets users share photos with friends and family using Yahoo mail. Sharing photos is as simple as pointing to the desired photo and clicking it.
My Photos is an application by xoopit.com which lets users organize their photos, see them and share them inside Yahoo mail. After the usual Yada Yada and activation of My Photos one can start using this nice utility.
Pay Pal. If you ever need to send money or even receive it form anyone in the world this application will let you do that from your Yahoo mail box. The person sending/receiving the money needs to have an e-mail address or a telephone number and that’s about all.
