Yahoo Celebrates Its 14th Birthday

Yahoo is celebrating its 14th birthday today with a trip down memory lane in the form of a short photo essay on the company blog. Here’s one of the photos — a shot of the Yahoo home page in 1995:

There’s also a shot of co-founders Jerry Yang and David Filo which, perhaps accidentally, serves as a reminder of how things have changed for Yahoo. At this time last year, in fact, Greg Sterling noted Yahoo’s 13th birthday … and wondered if the company would survive to see number 14. Although the names have changed (a bit), many of those questions remain today as Microsoft & Yahoo continue to be the subject of much speculation.

Yahoo Buzz also just celebrated its first birthday, and Yahoo Search turned five just a couple weeks ago.

Happy birthday to Yahoo!
