I need a change of color ... again! Seems like every time I go purple, blue seeks me out :-)
Seems like I can't get very far from search, either ... search "seeks" me out :-)
The last time I was at Yahoo, it was short and relatively uneventful (notable was the "search index war" that caused Google to drop the index size counter on the home page!)
I moved to Google and worked on a bunch of products - Web Search, Alerts, Custom Search, Site Search, the Search Appliance, and Ads automation.
I left Google for an ecommerce startup called Lexity, and we were acquired by ... Yahoo ... last year. Boomerang! (what they call second timers)

I got a lot done the second time - product integration with Yahoo Merchant Solutions in a record 6 weeks after acquisition, launch of the Live Web Insights iPhone app, a unique powerful one-click badging system with benchmark insights for ecommerce, and a brand new Yahoo Stores ecommerce platform, among other things.
In 2009, I wrote my most popular tech blog post: A Brief History of Search - a Play for 3 Ages!
I may need to write a sequel to this popular play in a bit ... stay tuned :-)
