?Jerry's Guide to the World Wide Web
Yahoo, one of the net's most iconic companies, is celebrating its 10th anniversary this week.
The web portal has undergone remarkable changes since it was set up by Stanford University students David Filo and Jerry Yang in a campus trailer.
The students wanted a way of keeping track of their web-based interests.
The categories lists they devised soon became popular to hundreds of people and the two saw business potential in their idea.
Originally dubbed Jerry's Guide to the World Wide Web, the firm adopted the moniker Yahoo because the founders liked the dictionary definition of a yahoo as a rude, unsophisticated, uncouth person.
作為最具特色的互聯(lián)網(wǎng)企業(yè)之一, 雅虎本周迎來了它的10周歲生日。
從創(chuàng)立至今,這個門戶網(wǎng)站經(jīng)歷了巨大變遷。當(dāng)初,斯坦福大學(xué)的兩名學(xué)生大衛(wèi)·菲羅和楊致遠在校園的一輛拖車里創(chuàng)建了雅虎網(wǎng)的前身。
這兩位學(xué)子希望找到一種方式來記錄他們個人對互聯(lián)網(wǎng)的興趣軌跡。
他們設(shè)計的網(wǎng)頁目錄列表迅速得到了很多人的青睞,他們看到了自己的創(chuàng)意潛在的商機。
最初被稱為杰瑞指南萬維網(wǎng),該公司采用了雅虎這個名字因為創(chuàng)始人喜歡字典里對雅虎作為一個粗魯?shù)模|(zhì)樸無華的,笨拙的人的定義。
