    A VC: My Thinking on YHOO

    A contrarian view.

    Quoted: They may need new leadership to do that. But selling this asset to Microsoft just because they had the wrong leadership and probably still have the wrong leadership is a mistake.

    Leaving Yahoo! (by Jeremy Zawodny)

    Jeremy Zawodny is among the many who've announced they're leaving Yahoo.

    Quoted: I won't at all be surprised if some people think this is related to Microsoft or Carl Ichan and the uncertainty surrounding Yahoo's future. The reality is that there's nothing pushing me out the door at Yahoo. The reason I'm leaving is that something very compelling has come along to lure me away. Despite what the current press sentiment might be, Jerry and David have built a remarkable company.

    MicroHoo:  corporate penis envy? - O'Reilly Radar

    It does feel like Microsoft's main gameplan in the consumer Web space over the last couple years has been to play catchup.

    Quoted: So let's assume that Google has won at search, or close enough to make no difference. Is Microsoft better off trying to reimplement cat and ls, or trying to figure out what's still missing from the Internet Operating System? While they are locked in penis envy, all the really cute girls are going out with startups :-)
    ...
    Learn from the best, partner with the best, fill in the gaps, and build for the future. Above all, remember that great companies have "big, hairy audacious goals." Energize Microsoft by pursuing a seemingly impossible goal that can change the world for the better.

    Microsoft To Yahoo: Take a Hike! - GigaOM

    Quoted: A few days ago I had pointed out that Microsoft’s bid for Yahoo was a checkmate kind of a move: Yahoo couldn’t win from this attack. Today, by pulling its bid for the Sunnyvale, Calif.-based search company, Microsoft proved that again, and showed why it is still the Prince Machiavelli of Technology. Here is why

    Google Finance: Stock Screener

    Google Finance just added a stock screener. The main advantage I see over Yahoo's is that the UI is simple, and you don't need Java. The main disadvantage is that it is missing the PEG ratio.

    Quoted: Today, Yahoo filed a presentation detailing its three-year financial plan that management gave to its board of directors in December, before Microsoft’s unsolicited bid.
