Dubya 09-07-2011 02:33 PM

lol I assume that email address is limited.. ie. not just anyone can send an email to all yahoo employees

WiredGuy 09-07-2011 02:34 PM

The company is nothing more than a brand at this point, they're selling off every unit for the highest dollar and its going to come to an end soon. A true shame it came to this.

If anyone is going to buy them it will be Microsoft.
But I dont think its going to happen. It would be better for yahoo if it did not happen.

No shit... What could have been a powerhouse was run by an amateur for way too long. The board is made up of amateurs. It seems the entire company brass was weak. So many great engineers creating some of the hottest tools and now it is all going bye-bye...

LeRoy 09-07-2011 03:04 PM

That sucks :(

CyberHustler 09-07-2011 03:05 PM

The only thing I ever liked about yahoo was geocities....

Klen 09-07-2011 03:07 PM

Strange,they have alexa rank 4 so that should make some money.OR maybe microsoft stole their ad system lol.

HomerSimpson 09-07-2011 03:11 PM

Who the fuck is using that bullshit still? I thought they went out with America Online and underoos.

Black All Through 09-07-2011 04:10 PM

I like their organic traffic, mainstream converts better than google

My Pimp 09-07-2011 04:52 PM

i never used yahoo and never will

HandballJim 09-07-2011 06:45 PM

They sent me an email telling me they are no longer supporting Microsoft Frontpage extensions. I been using this software for 10 years now. Thinking about just moving all my mainstream and adult sites to wordpress blogs in the future.

Maybe you are better off to not use Frontpage and learn HTML.

How do you make money from yahoo chat? I thought that shit was pretty much dead.

ShellyCrash 09-07-2011 07:35 PM

Yahoo are their own worst enemy.

Carol Bartz really skrewed the pooch- sold off dating and jobs, killed paid inclusion, etc etc. The best is while she "steamlines" yahoo she shit on google in interviews for not diversifying enough, lol.

What's great about yahoo is it's a den of unsavvy surfers.

Google's got way more traffic but click to conversion yahoo has always been king. Their surfers buy. Too bad they can't see the forest for the trees.

Sosa 09-07-2011 08:32 PM

Hell they already pretty much ruined their PPC biz with the merge with adcenter. So much crap to go through as an affiliate now

That's the one thing I hated about Yahoo! The mail and yahoo chat was the shit though
Sad to see Yahoo going by the way side though, Once Google took over you knew it was a rap for them

maxxtro 09-08-2011 01:41 AM

Microsoft offered them $44.6 billion a few years ago, but they turned it down... :1orglaugh
