Este es el email que mand贸 Carol Bartz a los empleados de Yahoo explic谩ndoles el significado del acuerdo Microsoft-Yahoo.
Bartz tiene fama de ser una persona directa, sin pelos en la lengua y que apuesta por una comunicaci贸n de “t煤 a t煤” con los empleados, como puede comprobarse en el email donde explica que “habr谩 despidos” y que Yahoo no empez贸 como un Buscador, adem谩s advierte que han cerrado un acuerdo con Microsoft s贸lo para Search pero en los otros frentes les presentar谩n una dura batalla (o eso esperan claro).

It鈥檚 inhumanly early in California, but it鈥檚 already a great day at Yahoo!. We鈥檝e just signed a major search deal with Microsoft. Under the terms, Microsoft will become the search engine behind Yahoo! and we will become the worldwide exclusive relationship sales force for both companies鈥 premium search advertisers.
While you鈥檒l read a lot about why this is good for our business and for advertisers, I want to talk about what鈥檚 in it for you鈥搕he Yahoo! fan.
Here鈥檚 the rundown:
Better search: You鈥檒l still find search boxes all across Yahoo!, but this deal will make the difference between a great Yahoo! search experience and an awesome one. Some of the biggest brains in the business work on Yahoo! Search, and they will continue to innovate to create a better search experience on Yahoo!. As a result of the deal, Microsoft, which has great technologists and deep pockets,will have the scale to bring users faster, more useful and more personally relevant search.
Better everything else: With Microsoft powering Yahoo! Search, we鈥檒l be able to focus on the things we do best鈥揵eing the center of people鈥檚 lives online with properties like our homepage, mail, finance, news, sports, entertainment, mobile, etc. Sure, we鈥檙e the world鈥檚 largest online media company and your loyalty has made that possible. But we鈥檙e not satisfied鈥搘e still want you to say 鈥渨ow鈥 a lot more often. And that鈥檚 what makes this deal especially exciting.
Better competition: Competition equals innovation. But with one player dominating 70% of search, that field has been pretty lopsided. This transaction will create a healthy competitor that鈥檒l keep everyone on their toes.
In short, everything鈥檚 just going to get a whole lot better for you.
And one final note鈥搘hat this agreement does not cover is any of Yahoo!鈥檚 other properties or products. In those areas, Microsoft can expect a fierce competitor.
We鈥檝e set up a special site, www.choicevalueinnovation.com, that answers your questions.
