Yahoo Dips Into Single Digit Territory

November 13th, 2008 | No Comments | Posted in Web

This morning YHOO dipped to 9.83. This is a major inflection point for a company that could’ve sold itself to Microsoft a few weeks ago for at least three times that price per share.

Kara Swisher has weighed in asking questions regarding the company’s board. After Jerry Yang’s deer in the headlights performance at the Web 2.0 Summit last week, you’ve gotta wonder - where to from here guys?

Streaming The Real-Time Web

The MIT/Stanford Venture Lab hosted a fun session this week on Lifestreaming: The Real-Time Web. MC’d by Kara Swisher, who acknowledged to a somewhat flustered Jeff Clavier that she specializes in cheap shots, the session included Bret Taylor, a Friendfeed co-founder, and Loic Le Meur, Seesmic’s CEO.

The key question for me around the shift to the real-time web is how sites cater to different user tastes — some folks like drinking from the fire hydrant, getting a constant flow of information and responding to the trends, while others like to have the information archived (think of the way posts are represented on a blog) and they access it at their convenience.

I expect we will see a lot of innovation at this coal face to allow for the spectrum of usage.

Kara covers the event and includes some video - here.
