"PULL A YAHOO!" = To create a lot of hype around something--really build it up (like Yahoo! Photos and Yahoo! 360), get large amounts of people interested, even "hooked", then close up shop, runaway, then hide behind legal rhetoric all the while still building themselves up to be hip, new, wonderful, fresh...
Sentence: "Gregory put tons of photos on Yahoo! Photos and a lot of time and energy into "Yahoo! 360. Yahoo shut both down. After moving to other sites, I fear that my new web services might "Pull a Yahoo!" and do the same thing as Yahoo!"
"I sure hope Multiply.com don't pull a Yahoo!"
"I sure hope Multiply.com don't pull a Yahoo!"

from a guest post in a yahoo story:
You know how you are reading a yahoo story? You see a headline that looks interesting, it talks about some amazing new find... discovery... 2 headed baby... but there is no picture. So much fail, from this day forward I will only refer to failure as yahooing.
