Re: Yahoo firing 1,500 workers -3Q profit falls 64%
The truth is no one has a crystal ball, and hindsight is 20/20 -- at the time the Yahoo! board felt that the offer wasn't good enough for their shareholders. I'm not sure that many of the shareholders agreed. But that is in the past. I do think that some ego played into it as well though.

Yang made one of the biggest bonehead moves of the year by not accepting the offer from MSN. Can't believe that he still has a job..

Re: Yahoo firing 1,500 workers -3Q profit falls 64%
I am sure Yahoo will be hurt even more once the class action lawsuit by shareholders takes place for not working things out with Microsoft. Yang started something good once upon a time but I feel it has far outgrown him and he will never be able to lead it properly.
On another note, the slashing of employees helped the stock value a little bit today.

Re: Yahoo firing 1,500 workers -3Q profit falls 64%
How about Google quietly letting up to 10,000 go: http://www.webguild.org/2008/11/goog...s-affected.php
What amazes me is that these SEs can let half their work force go and we don't see them skipping a beat! What crazy sh** were they working on?!?

The climate is now such for Google to take over the web completely and increase thier already large market percentage.
