Yahoo Begins to Lay Off Employees

It's with a lot of sadness that I report about the ongoing Yahoo layoffs that have begun occurring yesterday. Danny has aggregated the news stories and headlines, and we're even seeing a Facebook group called "I worked at Yahoo until today" that has some familiar faces.

At Search Engine Roundtable, we're really sad to see this happen. All of the Yahooers have been played an important role in the search space, but many of you have also been very wonderful to us whether at conferences or with proactive approaches in the forums and blogs, and we're really sorry to see you go. We wish you the best in the future.

Forum discussion continues at Sphinn.
