Yahoo! Store Meeting (August 2004)
After the Search Engine Strategies conference in San Jose had wrapped up, Michael Roebuck, David Burke, Rob Snell, and I found ourselves with a few extra hours before our flights home, and thus decided to mosey on down (or up) to Yahoo!. There, we were greeted by our Yahoo! Store representatives Randy Yim and Vince Dinh. This was my first time to Yahoo!, and honestly it is a great site to see. On campus, there are 4 huge buildings (two of which I was able to tour), 2 full-court basketball courts, 2 full-size volleyball pits, a huge fitness center, and several game rooms which housed arcade-like games, pool tables, air hockey, and foosball.
 The Wise-Men's Committee featuring both Yahoo! Store designers and developers.
 Rob explaining one of his many interesting ideas.
 Rob: "We are going to need well trained individuals to invade Canada". Michael: "I can fly a plane."
