[WEB4LIB] Yahoo bans HTML email text with Javascript tags

[Blake Carver]

That and much more!
Yahoo said it will incorporate the technologies of Eyeblaster, EyeWonder, 
PointRoll and Unicast to boost the interactive advertising packages that it 
sells to clients. Yahoo said the deal will help it more easily sell 
catchier advertising campaigns.
The four companies have developed technologies that make it hard to avoid 
Web advertisements. Eyeblaster produces flash-animated pop-up ads; 
PointRoll technology expands ad banners when a mouse cursor touches it; 
EyeWonder lets advertisers stream video commercials onto a Web page; and 
Unicast creates ads that allow users to navigate within them without 
leaving a Web site.
