Yahoo to Shut Down Maps, Pipes, and Some Other Services

[Daljeet]

Yahoo Inc said it was shutting down a few of its services, including Yahoo Maps and Yahoo Pipes, as it realigns itself to focus on search and digital content.
Maps.yahoo.com will shut down by the end of this month, Amotz Maimon, Yahoo's chief architect, said in a blog post, as the service faces intense competition from Google Inc's Maps service.
