I, like some others, have received an email from Yahoo! Search Marketing stating that my "Yahoo! Search Marketing account will soon be completely upgraded and redesigned, providing you with a number of advanced features that will help you better connect to Yahoo!'s audience." Yahoo! was not suppose to release Panama (code name for the new YSM product) until the fourth quarter. But the second week of August rumors spread that Yahoo! would release this product early to some advertisers. Based on this email, it appears that we are seeing signs of this early release.
