Yahoo And Google Become BFFs

Yahoo And Google Become BFFs

Yahoo isn’t doing too hot and called in for some help. Yahoo made a deal with Google that lasts from this month until 2018, so it’s a pretty long-term relationship. The deal is that Google will provide Yahoo with search ads, algorithmic search and image search for desktop and mobile. Yahoo hopes that by partnering with their much cooler competition they will be able to get more revenue and more efficient search. Remember that Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer used to lead search at Google so it’s kinda like dating an old boyfriend. Maybe a new soap opera – “As Silicon Valley Turns?!” (Source The Verge)

Trouble in Electric Paradise

On Tuesday, Consumer Reports took away their Telsa Model S recommendation. Consumer Reports said that this Tesla model had “too many problems to recommend”. Some problems they noted were body and sunroof rattles, leaks and squeaks, power and charging equipment and its drivetrain.  But isn’t Tesla supposed to be the best car in the world? We thought so too. Tesla is taking quite the hit not only in reports but their shares went down 10 percent. (Source The New York Times)

What To Say When Your Favorite Song Comes On The Radio

Apple is winning again. Apple Music has 15 million subscribers with 6.5 million of them paying for the service. The remaining 8.5 are still soaking up their free three month trial. The 6.5 million who are playing to stream their favorite songs are paying $10 a month. 6.5 million paying $10 a month = a lot of profit for Apple…$780 million a year. Who knows what Apple will do next. (Source CNN)
