Yahoo buys WUF Technology
"By leveraging WUF Personal Networking solution, you can offer your customers ubiquitous connectivity to their digital content. Let their devices automatically discover one another. Let them access all of their content remotely. Let them give their loved ones instantaneous access to their content. Let them experience this new lifestyle through you and you’ll see significant usage, adoption and retention in your products and services."
Sounds interesting - the company had planned to build on three applications of the technology:
"Photos To Go.
A solution that allow your consumers to access their digital
photos from any internet access devices such as PCs, mobile
phones and media centers.
Mobile Tunes. This solution will
allow your consumers to stream their digital music from their PCs (or
other internet access device) to their mobile phones.
Personal Network Community.
A solution that allows your consumers to participate in a virtual
community to post their Multimedia journals."
Quick snap - I wonder on what Yahoo based the valuation (peer group?).
