Late in 2009 Yahoo acquired Xoopit that was basically a San-Francisco based company. It was bought in around $20 millions. With this yahoo was looking forward to provide a tool to its users with which they can extract meaningful content from their archived email.

Xoopit was basically a Gmail Firefox plug-in that was originally incorporated by Gmail. It is interestingly an email organizational tool that a user can use to scour email for all their media in a mail. It organizes data in a neat and clean format and also allows you to browse and share relevant information.


There were number of theories at that time that why Yahoo looked forward to acquire this Xoopit startup some of which says that yahoo with Xoopit wanted to provide a great medium of photo organization and improved photo sharing. Some says that yahoo also planned to provide a tool with Xoopit that will allow discovering of forgotten photos in Yahoo! Mail.


Sources claimed that Yahoo will provide a Xoopit extension that will be enabled for download to all its users. Yahoo invented Xoopit as an email web indexing architecture that was much similar to the algorithm of a web search engine. This tool was designed to help user to retrieve meaningful content from their email just like that a search engine does.

some other Several sources also revealed that Yahoo has acquired e-mail startup Xoopit for a reported $20 million. According to multiple reports Xoopit is a standardized tool that will be available for download as an extension to an existing yahoo account. This will help people to share content from their in boxes with social networking sites. But basically with this extension yahoo was looking forward to use Xoopit’s photo-sharing abilities though yahoo mentioned that Xoopit’s also has other capabilities like file management. In previous time Xoopit was seen a core functionality feature provided by yahoo to collaborate other social networking services but later it changed.


According to several sources, before incorporated by Yahoo, Xoopit was first impressed as an innovative plug in that worked with Gmail which was available for download from Google. Sources also say that Google was looking at the company for incorporation from a while but yahoo incorporated it as an extension. Previously Gmail was using this service as an offering at about $10 million.
