So this is an example from the Yahoo registration page.

CEO Marissa Mayer was asked questions like why the underline icon had been removed from the formatting options in Yahoo! Mail and why there was so much spam in Yahoo!

Yahoo set the pace in pioneering the active collaboration of Internet and high tech firms with political repression. In 2005, Yahoo gave the Chinese police the computer identification code for a dissident journalist, Shi Tao.

Yahoo News, the biggest news site on the Internet, is now personalized different people get different things.

But the best part is the message that the Yahoo help desk got about 20 minutes later.

And suddenly we had Netscape, and we had Yahoo and we had, indeed, the entire dotcom bubble.

But, until now, the right to work at home was sacrosanct at Yahoo!, something that an employee s manager could not overrule. And, by all accounts, enough people at Yahoo! were not working, either from home or from more interesting places, that it had become a serious problem.

UNICEF is collaborating with various private sector partners on and around sport for development, including IKEA, Yahoo and MasterCard.

And because the biggest producers of content on the Internet are not Google and Yahoo, they're us, we're the people getting policed.

Last January, my company, Fark.com, was sued along with Yahoo, MSN, Reddit, AOL, TechCrunch and others by a company called Gooseberry Natural Resources.

And this is a technique that I explored in a different project, the Yahoo! Time Capsule, which was designed to take a fingerprint of the world in 2006.

Shareholder activists can also claim other (at least partial) victories at Yahoo!, where a shareholder activist forced the newly appointed CEO to resign for falsifying his educational credentials.

Just a few years ago, companies like Yahoo, Nokia, Microsoft, and Blackberry seemed unrivaled. They have all since been disrupted by a new wave of tech companies Google among them.

However, new technology has allowed other non traditional providers of tourism services such as Microsoft, Google and Yahoo to enter the distribution market for tourism services and become providers of e tourism.

According to the data aggregated by Yahoo Finance, the previous average expectation of 15 analysts in the Wall Street is that the diluted non GAAP earning per ADS (American Depositary Share) of JD.com in the second quarter is 0.03 US dollar.

Unfortunately, faced with a choice between protecting the long term interests and human rights of their customers and complying with laws implemented by unelected power holders, technology firms like Microsoft, Yahoo, and Google seem to have embraced the Ah Q spirit.

Instead, the process was opened up to the public, with ordinary citizens allowed to contribute via a government blog. Advocates of free software mixed it up with law enforcers and lobbyists from the likes of Google and Yahoo, in a pioneering example of wiki democracy.

Now, however, something is happening to fix this, and it s not just a prettier background. It s structure the same sort of context the old Yahoo! catalogue supplied, but this time automatically generated and deeper and across more than just a few categories such as sports and travel.

Police use them to detect and repress dissidents. Either way, Microsoft, Yahoo, and Google make money  just like, say, IBM, which in the 1930 s sold its computing machines to the Nazi regime the Nazis used these machines to make the destruction of their victims routine and bureaucratic.

First came Yahoo!, with its carefully cultivated (by human editors) catalogue of interesting web pages. Then along came Google, with co founder Larry Page s innovative ranking of Web pages not just by their content, but also by the quantity and quality of other pages that link to them.

This all happened a couple of years ago just before Yahoo! gave up on search entirely and handed that part of its business over to Microsoft. Also around that time, Bill Gates uttered one of the smartest things he has ever said The future of search is verbs.

To be sure, it seems contradictory to some people that Yahoo!, an online business, requires its employees to be physically present in the company s offices. But most of the money and talent in this industry already seem to concentrate physically in one small part of the United States, between San Francisco and San Jose.

But Google and Yahoo! were once silly names both are now household words. I am convinced that a majority of politicians in twenty first century democracies including India will be tweeting within ten years, and those, like me, who were ahead of the curve will have only the consolation of knowing that we got there first.

Unfortunately, faced with a choice between protecting the long term interests and human rights of their customers and complying with laws implemented by unelected power holders, technology firms like Microsoft, Yahoo, and Google seem to have embraced the Ah Q spirit. They have made it clear that when it comes to free expression, their priorities lie on the side of surrender.

Annual general meetings provide an ideal opportunity to stand up and ask hard questions an opportunity that investors and community members should make certain is not wasted. At Yahoo! s recent annual meeting, the board was asked a wide range of questions but, with the exception of a question or two about Alibaba, few of them addressed any of the real issues facing the company today.
