Yahoo Revival

Oct 1 2007

I guess last week Yahoo had a big broo-ha-ha about their future.

Kara Swisher has a great write-up of the event called The Yahoo Revival Meeting (Starring His Digital Holiness Steve Jobs)!.

Some super-quick takeaways:

  • there were 300 plus top-executive attendees, all VP and above. (Good night, if Yahoo has 300 VP’s, maybe that’s your problem right there)
  • the event sounds very well planned and coordinated. Good move there, something like this will either bomb or go great, and the planning is the main key to success
  • Steve Jobs came and rallied the troops
  • Yahoo’s problems are execution. Put that in the category of obviousness. Can they take a meeting like this and actually do something with it?
  • Steve Jobs came and rallied the troops ;)

Anyway, I like Yahoo. Here’s hoping to they actually get some good things going.
