U-Michal Ždanský Umcimbi wabezindaba we-Yahoo! wenzeke izolo ebusuku, lapho inkampani imemezele khona izindaba ezimnandi. Muva nje, i-Yahoo ikhombise uguquko oluthokozisayo - sibonga i-CEO entsha uMerissa Mayer, ikhuphuka emlotheni, futhi inkampani ebigwetshelwe ukufa kancane inempilo futhi ibalulekile futhi, kodwa bekufanele idlule ezinguqukweni ezinkulu.
Kodwa buyela ezindabeni. Emasontweni ambalwa edlule bekunamahlebezi okuthi Yahoo! ingathenga inethiwekhi ye-social-blogging i-Tumblr. Ekupheleni kwesonto eledlule, ibhodi labaqondisi ligunyaze ngokusemthethweni isabelomali sezigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-1,1 zamaRandi ukuze kutholwe okunjalo, futhi isimemezelo esisemthethweni sokuthenga safika ezinsukwini ezimbalwa kamuva. Njengoba i-Facebook ithenge i-Instagram, i-Yahoo yathenga iTumblr futhi ihlose ukwenza okufanayo ngayo. Ukusabela kwabasebenzisi bekungekuhle kakhulu, besaba ukuthi iTumblr ibhekene nesiphetho esifanayo ne-MySpace. Mhlawumbe yingakho uMerissa Mayer ethembise ukuthi i-Yahoo! akafungi:
“Siyathembisa ukuthi ngeke siyixazulule. I-Tumblr ihluke ngendlela emangalisayo ngendlela yayo eyingqayizivele yokusebenza. Sizosebenzisa i-Tumblr ngokuzimela. UDavid Karp uzohlala njenge-CEO. Umhlahlandlela womkhiqizo, ubuhlakani nesibindi seqembu ngeke kushintshe, noma umgomo wabo wokugqugquzela abadali bokuqukethwe ukuthi benze umsebenzi wabo omuhle kakhulu wabafundi obafanele. Yahoo! kuzosiza i-Tumblr ibengcono futhi isheshe. ”
Izindaba ezinkulu kwaba isimemezelo sokuklanywa kabusha okuphelele kwesevisi ye-Flickr, esetshenziselwa ukugcina, ukubuka nokwabelana ngezithombe. I-Flickr ayizange ibe ibhentshimakhi yedizayini yesimanje eminyakeni yakamuva, kanye ne-Yahoo! ngokusobala wayekwazi. Ukubukeka okusha kwenza izithombe zigqame, futhi zonke ezinye izilawuli zibukeke zincane futhi zingabonakali. Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-Flickr inikeza isitoreji esingu-1 terabyte esigcwele mahhala, okuyenza ibe enye yezindawo ezilungele kakhulu ukwenza isipele izithombe zakho, nangokulungiswa okugcwele.
Isevisi izokuvumela futhi ukuthi urekhode ividiyo, ikakhulukazi iziqeshana zemizuzu emithathu ezifika ekulungisweni okungu-1080p. Ama-akhawunti amahhala awanqunyelwe nganoma iyiphi indlela, izikhangiso kuphela ezizoboniswa kubasebenzisi. Inguqulo engakhangisi izobe ibiza u-$49,99 ngonyaka. Labo abathanda isitoreji esikhudlwana, 2 TB, kuzodingeka bakhokhe enye imali engaphansi kuka-$500 ngonyaka.
“Izithombe zixoxa izindaba - izindaba ezisikhuthaza ukuthi sizikhumbule, sabelane ngazo nabangane bethu, noma simane siziqophe ukuze siziveze. Ukuqoqa lezi zikhathi kuyingxenye yokuphila kwethu kwansuku zonke. Kusukela ngo-2005, i-Flickr isifana nomsebenzi wezithombe okhuthazayo. Siyajabula ukuyisa i-Flickr nakakhulu namuhla ngomuzwa omuhle omusha ovumela izithombe zakho zigqame. Uma kuziwa ezithombeni, ubuchwepheshe kanye nokulinganiselwa kwakho akufanele kuphazamise isipiliyoni. Yingakho siphinde sinikeze abasebenzisi be-Flickr i-terabyte eyodwa yesikhala mahhala. Lokho kwanele impilo yonke yezithombe - izithombe ezinhle ezingaphezu kuka-500 ekulungisweni koqobo. Abasebenzisi be-Flickr ngeke baphinde bakhathazeke ngokuphelelwa yisikhala futhi.
