Quotes
Certainly Yahoo! wouldn't exist without the sort of environment that Stanford gave us to allow us to create it.
Jerry Yang
Half of Google's revenue comes from selling text-based ads that are placed near search results and are related to the topic of the search. Another half of its revenues come from licensing its search technology to companies like Yahoo.
Eric Schmidt
I don't think that Yahoo or any other Internet company should try to become a television network. We will be nowhere if we have to create our own content.
