The Yahoo Parties site starting at now feels overlooked. Visiting the presentation page today, I saw a layout of social affairs that hadn't been dynamic in years. The motivation behind appearance moreover relationship with the Yahoo Get-togethers official blog, which hasn't been animated since October 2014. Decisively when you click on a social gathering, you'll see a warning at the most raised purpose behind the page that alerts about the advancing toward shutdown.
115 million customers in 2010
Yahoo incited Get-togethers on January 30, 2001, saying in an official explanation that the site would connect with customers "to make affiliations, stay in touch, share considerations, and discussion about interests through the accommodation of notable email and Electronic gadgets."
In 2010, Yahoo said there were 115 million Yahoo Get-togethers customers and 10 million gatherings, eWeek reported by then. Yahoo in like manner walked then that it had contracts with around 100 bearers and handset makers around the world to preinstall Yahoo applications on mobile phones.

Yahoo was feeling pressure from Facebook starting at now at any rate was endeavoring to convince customers that Yahoo Social gatherings offered novel central center interests. "On Facebook, if you have different companions, you should be cautious about posting something that might be offensive or just not fundamental to somebody," Yahoo authority of customer experience Greg Rosenberg told eWeek in the 2010 article. "With Yahoo Parties, you can start up a near to page with a humbler get-together, for example, that would be of interest just to those neighbors living in the area."
Without a doubt, Yahoo Get-togethers lost clear quality as social affiliations took off, and the Yahoo business everything considered declined all through the 2010s. Verizon bought Yahoo's working business for $4.48 billion in June 2017, framing another stronghold called "Guarantee" that included both Yahoo and AOL.
Guarantee (direct called "Verizon Media") disregard to compete effectively against Google and Facebook in the impelling industry segment, and Verizon has responded by again and again cutting the division's spending cutoff and staff.
