What happens when I link my Yahoo! account to my other social networks?

Description

This article describes the features you will get when you linked your Yahoo! account with other social networks.


Resolution

When you link to another social network, you can share updates between Yahoo! and the other network. You no longer need to go from one site to another to see what's going on with your circle of online friends.

Currently, you can link your Yahoo! account to Facebook. When you do, you'll see your Yahoo! updates on your Facebook Wall, and your Facebook updates added to your Yahoo! updates in a number of properties such as Yahoo! Mail and Yahoo! Messenger. If you allow it, you'll see your Yahoo! updates on your Facebook Wall. Your Facebook friends and your Yahoo! connections will also see these updates when they visit your profile or Wall.

Information shared with other network accounts is subject to each network's privacy policy and information imported from another network account to Yahoo! is subject to the Yahoo! Privacy Policy website.
