Yahoo's technology revolutionised the industry, helping usher in a new era of high-speed communication that changed the way millions of barrels of oil traded daily. While social users may not be that perturbed by this development, some oil traders and other merchants may not be that happy. Other services that succumbed to competition over the years include MSN Messenger, AOL, ICQ, and even Orkut. However, with the advent of smartphones, Facebook, and eventually WhatsApp, Yahoo Messenger lost its steam and users started to switch. In its prime years, the service was the most used as it was an alternative to emails and SMS messaging. To recall, Yahoo Messenger was launched by Stanford graduates Jerry Yang and David Filo in 1998, and it managed to run for a long 20 years. Yahoo recommends that users delete the app after users save their chat history.

While you cannot log in to the app, even if you have it downloaded on your device, there is a provision by the company to save your chats. Users can now no longer access chats in-app, and the service will no longer work. To recall, California-based company Yahoo announced last month that it would be killing off Yahoo Messenger. Yahoo Messenger, the pioneering messaging app that changed the way users communicated over the Internet, is now officially dead.
