which are all moving to whatsapp and wechat.
yahoo could have retained some of those eyeballs if they had more than two developers working on IM. To list a single example that a toddler could have came up with. saying that nobody could have done better than MM is a huge stretch of imagination.
- fnord123 9y agoI agree. I'm not one of he people who think that no one could have done better than MM. On the contrary, my cat could have done better. My cat would have also chased a laser pointer around the room instead of pissing a billion dollars away on tumblr. Then he would have insisted that yahoo offset the capex on internal clusters by entering the cloud infrastructure field. This would offer another revenue stream not tied to eyeballs. Newspapers had been consolidating since they didn't know how to make money from the web. So I expect chairman meow to have also bought some papers. Cats love sitting on paper. And getting yahoos ability to make money from the web and the natural draw of journalism it seems like a good fit.
- gcb0 9y agoWell she did buy. but instead of buying newspapers and getting the entire newsroom she bought a couple of high profile bubble heads who millennial don't even know the name. One of which spent all her time making and promoting her political documentaries.
