Following the Open Innovation paradigm, Yahoo! acquires companies that have innovative products and services that can improve Yahoo! services offering (examples of this are both Flickr and Jumpcut) instead of developing all the products internally. Moreover, Yahoo! launched some time ago Yahoo! Developer Network, which allows any developer to use Yahoo! contents and services to produce new applications. Additionally, not only has Yahoo! announced that they will open the source code of Yahoo! Mail before the end of the year, but they have also held the Yahoo! Hack Day organized by Yahoo! Developer Network. During this event more than 400 people were invited to visit their premises and 54 hacker teams entered a 24-hour competition to develop applications based on Yahoo! services and contents (further information regarding this event can be found in blogs such as Techcrunch, Skype Journal or GigaOM).

(Personally I think the large numbers turning out for the event might have more to do with the free private Beck concert.) Among the numerous prizes (Best Schtick, Most Useful), the top project entitled “Blogging In Motion” was bestowed upon the three gal team of Diana Eng, Emily Albinski and Audrey Roy. Their photosnapping-cum-automated blog creation combined a camera, handbag, pedometer, and FlickR API. Not sure how the integration of the handbag managed to score high points in the aesthetic design quota component of the competition, but phallic symbols aside, we’re not entirely certain that the Darth Vader resemblance didn’t work in their favor.
