This module implements Yahoo! Browser-Based Authentication for Drupal sites. It lets users login to your Drupal site using their existing Yahoo! user id and password.

Now that Yahoo has announced they will support oauth going forward (see this link for details), the fate of BBauth is unclear. My guess is that developers should plan on moving to oauth as soon as possible since it is an open standard that is being supported by Google and others.
