Yahoo has been pulled in a thousand directions at the same time, so it's a miracle that it's lasted as long as it has already. I think Yahoo has kept at least some of its usefulness, even if it's lost its "cool" factor.

Re: paradox (Brief Thoughts)
Some of the sites I visit (and for now I'll focus on the presidential sites) give me a headache because it is so "video intensive"--i get that but trying to find stuff is just a challenge.    The balance is to be "cool"..but at the same time stay relevant.   I guess Yahoo lost that.

Wishing you all a fab Weekend!!

Re: paradox (Brief thoughts)
Thanks @Dhagar--they are certainly trying but the challenge is to remain "cool".   Who kneew that Instagram would stop being "cool" and now the Transformational Tool is "Snapchat".    Dizzying at times...isn't it?

Re: paradox (Brief Thoughts)
@mpouraryan, garage sale is a good title - sad but true.

Great article - simplicity and producing value are still the keys - simple focus that is hard to execute.

Thanks for sharing!

Re: paradox (Brief thoughts)
@mpouraryan, thanks for insights.  I have heard that as well, that the cool factor is shifting the popularity.  If anyone can keep pace with the changes though, I think Twitter can.  Let's hope they do!

Re: paradox (Brief thoughts)
Indeed @Dhagar--but interesting enough, it appears that it is not as "cool" as it is perceived as a recent matrix that came out noted that Snapchat is the "go to" for the teens that has surpassed Instagram..also with some of the recent developments coming out of Facebook Developer Conf. in San Francisco in going after Twitter in a different way with Messenger and build-in intelligence for chats, for instance, it will be interesting to be witness to.

Re: paradox (Brief Thoughts)
The Yahoo Garage Sale is now in "Full Force"--I was jealous as I was assessing it on the number of unique visitors:  1 Billion!!!    Companies like the Daily Mail (and many probably know this) are in the running.   We should know soon!!

On a more crucial note, something I shared with the New IP community is also worth noting here..because this is at the heart of transformation and i could not disagree with a single Syllabus:

Re: paradox (Brief Thoughts)
@mpouraryan, interesting perspective/report on Yahoo.  I agree with the analysis and believe their only way forward is a sale.  They lost their way.  It will be interesting to see what piece they now play in a perspective buyer's picture.

@mpouraryan, thanks for sharing!  These are great!


Absolutely, if we do not keep the human spirit, intellect, and humanity,  in the picture - we will potentially lose all integrity - everything then becomes a matter of "utility".  That would be a world I would not choose.


As long as we keep thinking, learning, growing, and sharing - we will keep the important things in perspective
