Today, Yahoo!’s CTO announced his retirement after 11 years of duty. Valleywag asks some interesting questions and has the internal memo here.
“Of the three key positions under Terry Semel — sales, product and tech — two are open,” observes Valleywag.
Considering that 2 of the 3 spots reporting to Semel are open, and that Semel might be biding his time to leave, I’d say the power vaccum is a perfect time for eBay, MSFT, even dare I say News Corp. to make a run at YHOO?
Options:
- Should MSFT Spin Off MSN.com/Live into Yahoo!?
- YHOO Let One Rip and Everyone in the Room Heard It
- Take Yahoo! Private, Triple Your Money in Four Years?
