Overall I see Yahoo! as a stable of formerly great assets too. Bad thing is that working with their ad system is a very poor experience. Work on that and Yahoo! is on the right track, except for the search volume in particular markets.

I’m glad to see you guys getting your act together in order to take back over the market shares that you deserve.

I have loved, hated, and am now back to loving yahoo again. It’s tough to be corporate and cool, but you guys do!

Dear Carol,

I want to let you know that I don’t know if we are family or not but Want you to know that family means everything to me, My Dad, Eugene Bartz (originally from Plainview MN born to ALfred and Edna) passed away in 2005. He was my MAIN support in trying to overcome the discrimination of being a gay man. Still is. I left teaching, which I love, because of the seemingly non-acceptance of the gay lifestyle in the classroom.

I now work at Barnes and Noble and am always secretly pleased when we capture e-mail’s with a Yahoo! account. I am proud that you have gone so far— relative or not. You are a real inspiration to me.

I have to admit that my innovation-savvy is getting better. I fought it for so long.

Thanks for reading,

Steven

I actually gave up all Yahoo services a few years back, except mail, which I still use mostly for historical reasons.
I saw the company grow, I saw the company stall and I hope I dont see the company go down.

It is good to see someone trying to pull up a great company like Yahoo – a company that should have never gone down in first place.

Anways, I wish you luck and all the very best in “the resurrection”!

Ms. Bartz,

Content on Yahoo NEWS is becoming blatantly right-wing, anti-Democrat and anti-Barack Obama.

Is Yahoo turning into a new FauxNews?!

Thank you,
Nick

Very well stated. A little attitude is something that needs to be part of the Yahoo picture. I feel like it has been missing for a long time.

Great way to motivate employees, and a great way to communicate commitment to customers.

As a no nonsense CEO who spares the weaklings sugar coatinged speeches, I think its time to make changes in yahoo writers presentations to the public with articles they write.

I find it amateurish a writer spends time on a story, expects readers to find the content credible without the writer signing off on the story with an email address.

Writers at many newspaper, magazine and other website outlets leave an email address or at least their name at the end of the story they write. Yahoo is one of the few whose writers hide behind anonymity. Step up to the plate and act professional. Show some pride in your work.

Congratulation’s on the new service …. yahoo is the best

Carol Bartz, seems to me we have to do something sooner than later. The PPC Industry maybe evaporating quicker than you think. Today we can Brand without PPC or CPM. Yes Carol can you image the next wave of Internet marketing soon to replace traditional PPC and CPM. Williamblairpinc.com can show you the way. The opportunity to talk with us is narrowing. When we launch the opportunity may be history. Example: You visit a car repair website, Pepsi Cola has introdued a new beverage geared to car enthusiast, our system would allow Pepsi to “blank” adverting on the current images we have on the website, similar to product placement in “blank”. At the same time, contexual and banner advertising would be directing the visitor to inquire on this product and direct the user to Pepis’s website says William (Director and Founder)of Williamblairpinc.

What I would like to know, is what Carol Bartz intends to do to: a) identify and retain critical key employees; b) recruit new ones; or c) try to retrieve ones that have left the fold.

I see that a lot of talent has headed for the exits. This cannot be healthy for the long term survival and growth of Yahoo.

Maybe I’m not a accredited member of the media,
but I’m a yahoo 360º user and we all want to know

I use Yahoo! because you let us comment on your corporate blog (unlike Google…)

I’d love to hear what you are going to do for those customers that just like blogging.

We don’t want another facebook, we loved Yahoo360 and would like that fixed or something that is better – NOT something else entirely.

And while we are thinking about why get rid of all the Yahoo Profiles without passing that info to the new Profiles, that was one great big advantage that Yahoo has wasted.

Don’t do it again with Y360!!

Carol,

How about giving the Y!Profiles team a kick (out the door). I haven’t seen any positive feedback regarding the changes made.

Also, how about doing something about Y!Mail. How pathetic is it that users can’t even post messages to the Y!Mail blog anymore? This is a sign that you obviously aren’t doing what your customers want.

I’m not surprised that you’re having another round of layoffs. To pig-headed to give your users what they want.

Dear Carol, Yahoo is a powerful tool of communication for so many people yet changes are being made to apps without warning causing frustration or not taking any action what so ever. Mail, Chat, Chat Grouping for family/work, etc., Profiles, Toys and apps for home pages that don’t work. WE (your users) aren’t being taken seriously by Yahoo. Have you ever heard of surveys to find out what we like, what works for us and what is a waste of time?

Carol,

Congratz on your new role (i know its a bit late).

Do just this one thing get Yahoo right on track make its customers and old customers look back at Yahoo again with all that respect?

Make your email service (which is the heart of yahoo) as fast and clean and friendly as gmail.

I will do anything that you would say.. if this doesn’t work. :)

An old timer..
