Google to Host YUI! JavaScript Libraries

Posted at 12:12am EST on 11/23/2008

Google has been hosting a number of JavaScript libraries already, but the collection had been incomplete.

No longer! Google’s JavaScript API hosting spot is now hosting Yahoo!’s YUI! libraries.

Now, instead of being forced to use Yahoo!’s content delivery network (CDN), you can choose between Google’s CDN and Yahoo!’s CDN. Yahoo! has their own write-up about the partnership.

This is actually a great move by both Yahoo! and Google because now, Yahoo!’s YUI! libraries are even more accessible than ever.

Despite being competition, both Google and Yahoo! know how to create strategic partnerships to serve the greater community — not just the dollar at the end of the day.
