WP8 at #5 on Yahoo's trending now

[dv220s]

Well, it looks like Windows Phone 8 is getting some much needed attention far before the official launch. Earlier today it was iPhone 5 now it's WP8.

 

[smoledman]

Yeah and out of nowhere really. The WP8 SDK leaks are really a developer/geek thing.

Yeah and because only those people still use Yahoo. Jokes, but it is nowhere near as popular as google is to average users.

Hey! I use Yahoo haha. Jokes aside, it's still there at #5. It's still a good indication of some attention.

It is nice that the OP noticed that. However, I'm with you. I do not remember the last time I visited Yahoo.

Well I have AT&T and the email and the myatt site is on Yahoo, so I guess I am still a Yahooer

That's why I don't use Yahoo any more. I ditched AT&T as my ISP 1 1/2 years ago. The old account still exists and reverted to a free Yahoo account now, but I never use it.

I really do not even use the email address from my new ISP (Time-Warner) either. Gmail is now my default, with Hotmail strictly for Microsoft-related stuff.

I use Yahoo and Google, and Bing on my phone

I use Yahoo and Google, and Bing on my phone

I use Bing search mostly, even in desktop browsers (Firefox, Opera, Chrome--don't use desktop IE).

I also use Google search occasionally on mobile.

I never use Yahoo search.

I hit Yahoo as a news portal (among others), but not for searching, even though it IS powered by Bing. I just have a tab open for Bing or use the search bar in the browser for searching.
