Yahoo acquires WebJay

According to the Yahoo! Music Blog, Yahoo yesterday acquired the online music playlist publishing company WebJay. I've never used this site myself, but it's an interesting concept. They use an open XML format for sharing playlists called XSPF (pronounced "spiff"), which should soon be available as part of Yahoo Music's already existing open APIs.

Also reported on Techcrunch and an IM interview of Lucas Gonze, the creator of WebJay.
