Yahoo!, that is.

So I made the decision. Yahoo gave all the right answers, as did CMU, and so I've decided to defer my admission to CMU's HCI program for one year, and go to work for Yahoo in the interim. Yahoo has told me they don't mind my plan to get my masters because a year is a long time, and they believe that after a year at Yahoo, I won't want to leave.

So, as of May 29th, I'll be starting at Yahoo as a User Experience Designer. They're getting ready to move into their brand new corporate palace campus in a few weeks. The commute is going to be a bear, but I have a few creative ideas on how to handle it.

I was told that something like 60% of the people in the UE group at Yahoo comute more than 35 miles to work, so at least I'm in good company.

Stock price fell to 13 9/16 yesterday. I wonder if my options are from the hire date or my first day of work. I wonder which would be better...
