Yahoo!
On Friday I had a meeting with the editor of Sprout magazine. We spoke about the future of search and Yahoo came up. I told him that it was funny that a lot of people in the industry considered them gone and a ‘has been’.
But if you look at the data they are still the number one website in the world. Don’t take my word for it: try Alexa. Google isn’t even number two.
We talked a bit about how this was possible and what the future would look like. I said:
“before the end of the year Terry Semel will leave and once he does you will see the stocks go up right away.”
That was Friday, Semel left Yahoo yesterday.
Stocks went up right away.
You know what they say: even a broken clock is right twice a day.

We indeed spoke about the underperformance of Yahoo and agreed that Semel should go. Boris then made this prediction. The man is a visionary.

I’m trying to figure IT out. How did my search for my name pull up this website? I’d be interested in an opportunity to explore this with you.
I love your blog because of the certain quality of content and users you will find here. In addition I do not come across useless and grammatically wrong sentences such as “yo”, “hey” and “lol” type of comments which in my opinion are whack, less thought out and filler material that is and of little use to other commenters. The content on the blog is well-written and well-prepared which is not the case with other niche blogs in the blogosphere. Indeed, I am willing to invest relevant time towards sharing my knowledge and ideas with other bloggers.
