In 2001, Yahoo! News launched the first “most-emailed” page on the web.[2] It was a well-received innovative idea, expanding on how computers could be used to do things in a society.
Yahoo allowed comments for news articles until December 19, 2006, when commentary was disabled. Comments were re-enabled on March 2, 2010.[3] Comments were temporarily disabled between December 10, 2011, and December 15, 2011, due to glitches.
