“Using our latest technology and in partnership with Lucasfilm Ltd. and starwars.com, we have created starwars.yahoo.com so that you can discover new Star Wars content, connect with other fans, and share your passions with the entire online galaxy.”
Cool… but, isn’t that what StarWars.com is for? Why do we need to go to Yahoo!’s Star Wars page instead of StarWars.com - The Official Site?

Er, isn’t that what the starwars.com site is for? Isn’t this just another way for Lucasfilm to make more money from the franchise? They sell rights to Yahoo, then Yahoo can make money from advertising. Plus isn’t Yahoo part of the group that looks likely to buy the rights to the TV series?

We already get this (and in more up to date fashion) on starwars.com. I see no added value here.

The Yahoo Star Wars site is NOT replacing starwars.com at all, so don’t worry. It’s just another extension of starwars.com. Think of us as that craft glitter that gets on everything it touches to make it extra sparkly and pretty. But when you try to wash it out in the laundry, the glitter is STILL there.
In conclusion, Starwars.com = glitter.
