In 2013, it is critical that men and women who have been strong performers and demonstrated they have what it takes to contribute to an organization to have the option to work from home. It builds engagement and an engaged workforce is good for business -- any and all business. When that business happens to be an Internet/technology juggernaut, it's that much more feasible. At least, it should be.

This is not just a gender issue. It is a talent issue and one that will have implications certainly for the productivity of any company that denies flexible work environments to people who have proven they can deliver, and who meet the criteria established by a given organization to work effectively from home.

How about their un-ending shopping spree?

Looks like they are throwing money at the wall to see what sticks.

If Yahoo made its own web browser, it would be the last holdover for a certain HTML tag. <-- make sure to visit that link with FF -- while it still "does stuff"

The tech dino that is kicking itself for not hiring Ray Kurzweil, obv. "What if a perk of working at a company was that it extended your life?"

Ahh Yahoo, so big and now so not...

Makes me wonder what Google will look like in another 10 years.
