Yahoo was established by Jerry Yang and David Filo in January 1994 and was one of the pioneers of the early Internet era in the 1990s.

Examples of yahoo! in a Sentence

1. Nomura Equity Research analysts:

   We believe the likelihood of a positive tax outcome for the company diminishes as more time passes ; this remains the core overhang on Yahoo's valuation.

2. Susan Decker:

   I hope the next owner can do something to revitalize the spirit of the core things that made Yahoo very, very unique and create a distinction in consumers' minds about why they love Yahoo Inc still. It will be helpful if it is private or part of a much larger corporation to achieve that.

3. Neil Doshi:

   This is absolutely a step in the right direction, we’d much rather see Yahoo either spinoff or potentially sell the core and have a tax liability on a smaller piece than have it on the larger Alibaba piece.

4. Verizon Media:

   With Apollo's sector expertise and strategic insight, Yahoo will be well positioned to capitalize on market opportunities, Verizon Media and transaction experience and continue to grow our full stack digital advertising platform.
