Yahoo turns 10!

1 Mar 2005

Yahoo is a decade old tomorrow, March 2. Hard to believe, revenues of $3.57 billion, net income of $834 million, a market cap of $44.41 billion. ... Hey, maybe there is real money in this Internet thing.

In the early years, it was the site with the funny name where you found stuff. It survived the Bubble. So far, it has survived Microsoft and Google.

Here's an article with Jerry Yang and Wired's take "The UnGoogle (Yes, Yahoo!)"

Happy Birthday Yahoo!
