For people that think they can foresee the future of "tech" or whatever else: tell me how around 2000-2004 anyone could have foreseen that Yahoo Search will be completely smashed by Google Search. I mean how could anyone come to a facts-based conclusion that would draw today's picture (Yahoo essentially bankrupt, Google one of the most profitable companies in the world).
- bachmeier 6y ago2004? If you ever get the opportunity to travel through time, go back to 2004 and find one person with any tech sophistication that didn't think that about Yahoo search. Oh, and the article was dead on. There's a lot of examples, but the only one you need to consider is that Microsoft now owns Github.
