Yahoo Turns In A Tepid Quarter, Firing 5%
- Yahoo's results were basically in line, with outlook slightly disappointing. Revenue was slightly light, EPS in line. Outlook for Q2 below street consensus. Overall, it's likely to disappoint, although current results are not particularly relevant. The company announced aggressive 5% layoffs (approx 650 employees), which is a smart move.
Simply Hired, the largest job search engine and recruitment advertising network, announced the launch of a new feature, "Flag this Job." While Simply Hired already has many safeguards against scam jobs, this feature enables job seekers to help each other by pointing to listings that are potentially fraudulent.

Yahoo, which has 20%, would benefit from the deal, but for now it's holding its own.

"This blogging activity presents new opportunities for marketers to influence—and monitor—conversations that may be relevant to their businesses," says Paul Verna, eMarketer senior analyst and author of the new report, The Blogosphere: A-Twitter with Activity. "These conversations will continue to happen with or without participation from marketers, but those who join in—whether through their own sites or through a brand presence on independent ones—will have a place at the table."
