Tracking Former Yahoo Execs – Where Are They Now?

Update: You can find the most recent list here.

Out of pure curiosity we started tracking Yahoo execs who’ve left the company since January 2007. It’s hard to believe, but at least fifty of them have bailed out in the last year and a half.

Some went to work for Google. Others went to startups. Many just left without saying what’s next.

We aren’t able to track the thousands of non-execs who’ve quit or were laid off, there are just too many of them. Many of these ex Yahoo’ers have congregated on this Yahoo Alumni Page on Facebook, with over 1,500 members. This picture above was taken from the group photos in that group.

We’re keeping an active spreadsheet of as many as we can track down, and have copied it below. If you know of ones we missed, please let us know in the comments.

And it appears that the exodus is just really getting started. We’ll keep this up to date in the future as well.

Update: 6/21/08 There were 50 people on our original list. We are now up to 114.
Update 2: 7/14/08 The list is up to 134 and counting.
Update 3: 10/31/08 Here’s the latest update.
