2006: "The internet is continuing to grow and evolve at a rapid pace, and we’re reshaping Yahoo to be a leader in this transformation." (Semel)
2007: "A year of transition in display" advertising. (Sue Decker, president)
2008: "An evolutionary and transformative year for Yahoo." (Blake Jorgensen, CFO)
Jerry Yang had the final word today as Yahoo warned that the latest repair work will not happen overnight: "This kind of transformation takes time." He’s not kidding.
