Yahoo to acquire Tumblr in $1.1 billion cash deal

[GoldenGlove]

Say Goodbye to the porn. No way a publicly traded corporate entity like Yahoo is going to stand for that shyt for long.

Ya but Yahoo actively tries to clean up the porn on Flickr. Or requires that the user make it private.

Nudity is generally accepted if it is considered artistic nudity.

Rumor: Yahoo to keep porn on Tumblr

Yahoo has 1 billion dollars?

Samething I was thinking. LOL..but it's probably one of those some cash up front and stock options.



CEO is only 26yrs old though and about to receive 200Mil+.

shyt like this makes you wonder what the hell am I doing with my life..lol

Yahoo spent a couple hundred million on some news app some high school kid made earlier this year too.. Yahoo worth billions as well , but this is a way better investment than the news app.


People make money off popular tumblr sites by using google advertising. Yahoo will prolly block that but make it incentive to use their ads instead just guessing

So Tumblr's founder, David Karp, is only 26 and never even graduated high school? He started messing with HTML at age 11, and took off from there.

I know he previously sold 25% of Tumblr, but i wonder how much of this $1.1B he's getting.

:wow2:

coding is like 1/10th of it. you have to be a businessman. I mean good coders get good money, 100k + easy and all but still the really big money comes from business decisions, not coding. coding is just implementation.

Pure dumb luck is 75% of the equation. Being a good businessman and a good coder are the other 25%.
