I will never be a CEO again.

I like Google.

I have a business to run and stockholders to think about.

The Internet, as a First Amendment medium, hinges on free expression, and that means free advertising.

Not only does Yahoo! have a unique franchise, it increasingly has industry-leading tools, technology and, most importantly, people.

The Curbside founders are successful entrepreneurs, who each have sold their companies to Apple.

I will continue to focus on global strategy and to do everything I can to help Yahoo! realize its full potential and enhance its leading culture of technology and product excellence and innovation.
