Who would've forgotten Yahoo! who offered many internet services like music, videos, social media, etc., and was the biggest internet company in the world back in the late 1990s?
Here's a quick introduction...
Yahoo! started at Stanford University. It was founded in January 1994 by Jerry Yang and David Filo, who were Electrical Engineering graduate students when they created a website named "Jerry and David's Guide to the World Wide Web". The Guide was a directory of other websites, organized in a hierarchy, as opposed to a searchable index of pages. In April 1994, Jerry and David's Guide to the World Wide Web was renamed "Yahoo!". The word "YAHOO" is a backronym for "Yet Another Hierarchically Organized Oracle" or "Yet Another Hierarchical Officious Oracle." The yahoo.com domain was created on January 18, 1995.
In early 2012, the largest layoff in Yahoo!'s history was completed and 2,000 employees lost their jobs.
Yahoo had many failures which caused the company to be sold to Verizon for $4.48 billion in 2017.
