Yahoo unveiled a new app, called Yahoo LiveText, Wednesday that combines live-video and texting, but without audio. “Interactions, from a goofy smile, to an eye roll and a sigh, mean ‘Lol’ isn’t needed to ensure the meaning of a text message – as real-time reactions are placed at the center of the conversation,” Yahoo said in its press release. The app, for iPhone and Android phones, will be rolled out worldwide starting with Hong Kong, Taiwan and Ireland. On Thursday, the app will be available in the App Store and Google Play store in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Germany and France.
