Very cool news tonight…we announced that the upcoming.org team is now part of Yahoo. More info is on the search blog and on Andy’s waxy.org.
At work we talk a lot about how media is fundamentally shifting to social media. The more we can put power in the hands of the community and put consumers at the center of the experience, the more rich and interesting the experience can be. The more that people use the services, the better they become. Upcoming is just that kind of service and I can’t wait to see how this integrates with Yahoo Local over time.
Congrats to the local team and to Andy, Gordon and Leonard. Welcome aboard!
