"A Reuters release notes that Yahoo Inc will stop letting consumers access its various online services, including Fantasy Sports and photo-sharing site Flickr, by signing-in with their Facebook Inc or Google Inc credentials. The move marks the latest change to Yahoo by Chief Executive Marissa Mayer, who is striving to spark fresh interest in the company's Web products and to revive its stagnant revenue.
The change, which will be rolled out gradually according to a Yahoo spokeswoman, will require users to register for a Yahoo ID in order to use any of the Internet portal's services."

I bet a good number of them don't know what to do with it.
But fundamentally they are all just selling eyeballs, this info lets them better quantify those eyeballs and thus charge a higher rate for ads. My expectation is that there are drop-in modules that suck-up that data and re-package it to feed into various advertising networks.
