Yahoo! continues to make inroads into the mobile world with two recent announcements concerning its Yahoo! Go for Mobile service. The Yahoo! Go for Mobile service brings a suite of features to help mobile consumers get the most out of the mobile internet, including:
– specialized mobile search
– local directory and maps
– personalized rich content from millions of sources
– photo sharing and email

Given that the main revenue source for Yahoo! has been advertising, this platform is also expected to facilitate mobile advertising.

The first of these announcements is that Yahoo! Go for Mobile is now available to work on the roughly 75 mobile device models powered by Windows Mobile.

In a related statement, Yahoo! and HDC announced a partnership to preload and distribute Yahoo! Go for Mobile on millions of HTC devices. HTC is the world’s leading manufacturer of Windows Mobile based smart phone devices, which are typically sold under private or operator brand labels.
