The Brutal Decline of Yahoo (infographic) (scores.org)

17 points by JessB ↗ HN
Yahoo!, once the largest destination on the net, has had a decade long identify crisis full of facepalm laden missteps, and a desire to outsource anything potentially profitable. This infographic scrapbook of the decline should bring some perspective to the one of the web's largest aging dinosaurs.

One day, people will make a similar infographic for Facebook.

I wouldn't call this an infographic. More like a very long vertical slideshow that doesn't relay any actual numbers or data.

Yall are aware of infographic spam, right? It is a simple way to game social news sites because the appearance of a lot of information in one place makes it look interesting.

How did Mark Cuban manage to get his company (Broadcast.com) valued at 5.7 billion is my question (it apparently did have some revenue at the time, at least).

Edit: yet another infographic spam. Sorry for commenting.
