If everything goes fine, and this new product hits the market, then it will be the first such achievement under the leadership of Yahoo’s new CEO Marissa Mayer. Even though the company hasn’t provided much information about this new product, but it is likely to be a messaging application.
The information was revealed by Amir Efrati at The Information Reports. Talking about this new launch, Efrati said that a new app would be set forth towards the end of this quarter.
It will be a combination of live videos, recorded videos and texts.

When Mayer left Google and joined Yahoo, industry experts called her a ‘Product CEO.’ During her tenure at Google, she always stressed on this one single thing.
