The Internet is not nearly as fail-safe as the phone system.

I am incredibly proud to return to the Yahoo board.

Yahoo! is dedicated to promoting community awareness through outreach, education and information access.

Search is essential to every service that Yahoo offers.

What's been important with Flickr is the community that's been there from the beginning and the serious photographers that are there creating and sharing great content. If we lose that at some point then I think we have potential issues, but so far we've been able to do a really good job of maintaining that.

Microsoft has tried to do a lot of things in search... thrown a lot of money. But nothing they have done has worked at all.

Open is something, I think, that will continue to drive a lot of innovation.

Online advertising is display plus search.

Hack Days were initially started for Yahoo employees.

Search as a paradigm will continue to be probably even increasingly important because the information that's out there is only going to grow exponentially - and the only way to sort through all that is by some form of search.
