Yahoo, Ten Years!

By jbat - March 01, 2005

1995-TmI’ve posted in the past on how Yahoo will turn ten this year, the image at left is from a Web 2.0 presentation we did back in October (by the way, I’m busy building the program for this year, and it looks awesome, already have a dozen folks lined up and I’m really excited…send me your ideas…) Anyway, a kind reader sent me a note that on Weds Yahoo plans to launch a microsite that, the reader tells me, “will be linked to from the main page. The microsite “will feature companies, news, historical events, popular culture, Yahoo! milestones, and innovations which are relevant to the past 10 years of the Web.” Keep an eye out for it!

Yahoo has had a spate of press coverage lately, from the Journal, Wired, and others. It’s SES Show week in NYC (wish I was there, but alas I could not make it) and Jerry Yang gave the keynote. Gary Price did a nice walk down memory lane here. Good coverage of SES here and here.

UPDATE: Here’s the ten year retrospective link…

    Jerry Yang was on Charlie Rose last night. You might want to order the transcript if you missed it.
