Verizon, U.S. telecoms giant, has announced its acquisition of Yahoo, the online behemoth, for $4.8 billion.
Verizon, which owns AOL, by acquiring Yahoo’s core business for $4.83 billion, will benefit from Yahoo’s advertising, content, search and mobile activities.
“Just over a year ago we acquired AOL to enhance our strategy of providing a cross-screen connection for consumers, creators and advertiser,” Verizon Chairman and CEO Lowell McAdam said in a release.
“The acquisition of Yahoo will put Verizon in a highly competitive position as a top global mobile media company, and help accelerate our revenue stream in digital advertising.”
However, Yahoo’s stakes in Alibaba and Yahoo Japan aren’t part of the acquisition.
These stakes are worth tens of billions of dollars alone. As of Friday, July 22, 2016, Yahoo’s 15 per cent stake of Alibaba represented $31.2 billion, and its 34 per cent of Yahoo Japan was worth $8.3 billion. Yahoo’s patent portfolio, which is worth around $1 billion, isn’t part of the sale either. Yahoo’s Sunnyvale headquarters are part of the acquisition, according to a source.
Yahoo will be integrated with AOL, and Verizon EVP and president of the Product Innovation and New Businesses organization Marni Walden is going to lead the process. AOL CEO Tim Armstrong also mentioned Marissa Mayer in his memo.
“Yahoo is a company that has changed the world, and will continue to do so through this combination with Verizon and AOL. The sale of our operating business, which effectively separates our Asian asset equity stakes, is an important step in our plan to unlock shareholder value for Yahoo,” Marissa Mayer said in the release.
Once the deal closes, Verizon wants to merge Yahoo and AOL to form a bigger advertising and media subsidiary. This way, AOL gets more scale and reaches enough Internet and mobile users to become an advertising giant reaching hundreds of millions or even billions of people.
Eventually, Verizon wants to compete with Google and Facebook when it comes to advertising.
When Marissa Mayer joined Yahoo in July 2012, she had big plans to make Yahoo relevant again. She doubled down on mobile, made dozens of acqui-hires, acquired Tumblr for $1.1 billion, acquired Brightroll for $640 million and revamped key products, such as Yahoo Mail, Flickr, Yahoo Weather and Yahoo Messenger.

since last year when I bought this tecno Y4 for my kid brother, I've searched the whole of the Internet for the custom recovery all to no avail..
so I tried searching for how to build a custom recovery for the device. but the results I was getting always required a computer. NB: I don't have computer. so I searched until I stumbled upon a post that let's you do it with just your phone. I tried it but it didn't work. I tried it again and it worked. now the problem is that the custom recovery I built saves system files to cache folder and data in system folder when I do a nandroid backup, but the backup restores very well without issues. I download some mtk roms for mt6572, ported them and tried to install them but three of them refused to install. the only one that installed got stuck at the bootlogo. then I discovered that I was trying to install a jellybean based rom on a Kitkat device. now I have downloaded KK based roms. I don't want to waste time porting and installing the rom when I don't know whether they will work well. all I need is for someone to tell me if the way my custom recovery takes backups will affect how the Rom will install. whether the system partition will be installed in cache causing a bootloop. then anyone with links to a perfect custom recovery for tecno Y4 should reply please.

keep searching we must find the joke

they tie it down very well then forward it to calabar, you know the rest

drake's new 4the studio album called 'views from the six' debuted on Friday night and already sold about 600,000 copies on that jight ...one thing that also stood out of the album was its cover art. The cover art features drake sitting on Toronto's CN tower. Trust me the internet and social media went buzzing. one guy tweeted that the album art looked like a loading scene in GTA V. even some web developers called funny astronauts created a site called drakesviews.com that let's you post any picture of yourself and add drakes picture sitting on the tower below.
