Yahoo will kill off at least 8 older products

Yahoo has announced it will be retiring a number of products as CEO Marissa Mayer moves to streamline the company.

Most of the products being axed are related to their old school online presence.

The full list:

Yahoo! Message Boards website
Yahoo! app for BlackBerry
Yahoo! Avatars
Yahoo! Updates API
Yahoo! Sports IQ
Yahoo! App Search
Yahoo! Clues (beta)
Yahoo! Updates API

The company is looking to continue updating products that are a "daily habit that still resonates" including fantasy sports, Yahoo Mail and Flickr.

Yahoo is solid for email, fantasy sports and a few other niche items. Avatars and any 360/social media type ripoffs should be canned. It's all a waste.
