Good question, but perhaps because the word itself is an exclamation - like Yippee! Hooray!, etc.
Yahoo! is essentially the same as those two, and perhaps it is meant to mean great, wonderful, fantastic - one is excited to use it (me don't think so!).
So just think......... we could have had Yippee! Mail, or Hooray! Mail.
heyyyyy lol!
"Yahoo" had already been trademarked for barbecue sauce by EBSCO Industries and that's why Jerry & Filo had to put an exclamation to get a unique trademark for themselves..
Yahoo!
because the man who made yahoos father died with a knife in his throat so now that man uses an exclamation point to forget about his lost.
A yahoo is a loud, boisterous person, or an exclamation of joy.

The Yahoo logo was designed in 1995 by Organic, Inc. It is very similar to the Youth International Party logo from the 1960s, and it is wondered if Yahoo took its inspiration from the Yippie logo.

someone else- It is an exclamation mark. me- well i think it would be an exclamation point because at the end of the thing it has a dot. Like a point. So i think it should be a point and not a mark. me- But exclamation mark is what it is called.
It isn't...
There is no difference between an exclamation mark and an exclamation point. They both refer to the same punctuation symbol (!) used to convey strong emotions or exclamatory statements in writing.
No
