Yahoo to combine Blog posts with Traditional Media Content
The Editor's Weblog reports that Yahoo announced yesterday they will incorporate content from the blogosphere alongside traditional media.
This is a very interesting story, and provides a lot of credence to Blog content online. Although they will clearly differentiate Blog content from mainstream media content, including the ability to read posts from over 10 million weblogs alongside traditional media will provide Yahoo! a clearer insight into how blog content is valued by a surfer, or as they put it:
“who do you trust more; any random blogger sitting in his basement commenting on Iran's nuclear situation, the journalist designated by a large brand-name media company to report on it, or an expert in Middle Eastern nuclear proliferation who happens to have his own blog?”
