The power of the internet is being unleashed in all the Metros in India. In a step forward to replacing the Yellow Pages Yahoo has launched local services for all the four metros in India. It can be accessed at local.yahoo.co.in. You will be directed to the correct page.

You can choose the desired city from the site. “Yahoo! India Local (Beta) exemplifies our strategy to be the leading starting point on the web, by providing the most relevant and compelling experience for local needs”, said Gopal Krishna, Head of Audience, Yahoo! India. “With this innovative product, we are trying to make the web more useful, engaging, interesting and localized to our users,” he added.

You can access all information as regards places, events, movies, sales and just about anything happening in the city. Users can leave reviews and post views on the site. A map interface provides directions. The migration of these services to the mobile phone will be a major technology shift and is likely to be a multi million dollar market in the days ahead.
