Yahoo Partners With Twitter, Is A Little Late To The Party

Yahoo and Twitter have formed a partnership quite a bit like the partnerships Twitter already has with Bing and Google, but this deal is more encompassing allowing Twitter info to be scattered throughout all of Yahoo, not just the search results. According to Mashable, the content-sharing partnership focuses on a few areas:

- Access to your Twitter feed on Yahoo: On Yahoo Mail, Sports, the homepage and other Yahoo properties, you will be able to check the most recent tweets of your friends.

- Ability to update status from Yahoo: Yahoo will become a Twitter client, allowing you to update your status from multiple locations on Yahoo. We’re not sure if this is going to be through widgets or another method.

- Yahoo Search and media integration: Public Twitter updates will be integrated throughout Yahoo Search, News, Finance and Entertainment, among other properties.

Yes, they're a little bit late to the Twitter partnership, but they have an arguably better position than Google and Bing insofar as integration with the service goes, so good for them.
