It estimates that Apple avoided at least $3.5 billion in U.S. federal taxes in 2011 and $9 billion in 2012 by using its tax strategy, and described a complex setup involving Irish subsidiaries as being a key element of this strategy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Cook said the Irish subsidiaries don’t reduce the company’s U.S. taxes at all. Rather, the company avoids paying the 35 percent federal tax rate on profits made overseas by not bringing those profits back to the U.S., a practice it shares with other multinationals.\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Apple’s enormous, iPhone-fueled profits mean that it has more cash stashed overseas than any other company: $102 billion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cook reaffirmed Apple’s position that given the current U.S. tax rate, it has no intention of bringing that cash back to the U.S. Like other companies, it has a responsibility to shareholders to pay as little as possible in taxes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That means cash-rich Apple is, paradoxically, borrowing money to finance dividends and buybacks for its shareholders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In effect, Apple is holding out for a lower corporate tax rate, and Cook spent some of his time in the spotlight to advocate for one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cook, who is more accustomed to commanding a stage in front of investors and techies than facing a congressional committee, took a defensive tone with his opening statement. He punched out words when stressing the 600,000 jobs that the company supports while adding that Apple is the nation’s largest corporate taxpayer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the same time, Cook said he was happy to appear to be able to give Apple’s side of the story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m saying it’s who we are as people. … Wherever we are, we’re an American company,” Cook insisted when asked about Apple’s use of affiliate companies in Ireland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He appeared with Apple CFO Peter Oppenheimer and Head of Tax Operations Phillip Bullock.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., the panel’s chairman, said Apple’s use of loopholes in the U.S. tax code is unique among multinational corporations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Apple uses five companies located in Ireland to carry out its tax strategy, according to the Congressional report. The companies are located at the same address in Cork, Ireland, and they share members of their boards of directors. While all five companies were incorporated in Ireland, only two of them also have tax residency in that country. That means the other three aren’t legally required to pay taxes in Ireland because they aren’t managed or controlled in that country, in Apple’s view.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The report says Apple capitalizes on a difference between U.S. and Irish rules regarding tax residency. In Ireland, a company must be managed and controlled in the country to be a tax resident. Under U.S. law, a company is a tax resident of the country in which it was established. Therefore, the Apple companies aren’t tax residents of Ireland or the U.S., since they weren’t incorporated in the U.S., in Apple’s view.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Apple is exploiting an absurdity,” Levin said at the start of the hearing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The core of Levin’s argument is that Apple has shifted intellectual property rights, like patents, to its Irish subsidiaries, which means other divisions pay royalties to those subsidiaries for their sales.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Intellectual property rights, like patents, are Apple’s “golden goose,” Levin said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Apple executives countered that the main company has kept the rights for North and South America, so only royalties for overseas sales flow to the Irish subsidiaries. Also, the Irish companies pay for some of research and development costs incurred at Apple’s headquarters in Cupertino, Calif.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What Apple is doing is pretty mainstream,” said accounting expert Robert Willens, in an interview.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The spotlight on Apple’s tax strategy comes at a time of fevered debate in Washington over whether and how to raise revenues to help reduce the federal deficit. Many Democrats complain that the government is missing out on billions of dollars because companies are stashing profits abroad and avoiding taxes. Republicans want to cut the corporate tax rate of 35 percent and ease the tax burden on money that U.S. companies make abroad. They say the move would encourage companies to invest at home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the two parties agree that reform is necessary, there is little agreement about what shape it would take. Throughout the hearing, senators on the panel seized on Apple’s situation to illustrate their belief that the U.S. tax system is in dire need of repair.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White House spokesman Jay Carney said the issue highlighted by the Senate panel’s report, unfairness in the U.S. tax code, is one of longstanding concern to President Barack Obama. Carney said Obama has long favored proposals “to ensure that American companies cannot use off-shore profit shifting to avoid paying taxes,” including a proposal for a minimum tax on foreign earnings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This has been a major priority of his because he thinks it is inexplicable that our tax code would actually be written in a way that rewards companies for taking jobs and profits offshore, and thereby penalizes companies for doing what we want them to do, which is create jobs and opportunity here in the United States,” Carney said Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thanks largely to the iPhone, Apple is one of the world’s most profitable companies. It earned $41.7 billion in calendar year 2012. It’s neck and neck with Exxon Mobil Corp. as the world’s most valuable company.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Apple’s Irish subsidiaries date back thirty years, to the time when the Macintosh computer was Apple’s banner product, and its profits were a fraction of 1 percent of today’s figure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Apple’s stock fell $2.74, or less than one percent, to $440.19 in Tuesday’s afternoon trading.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The subcommittee also has examined the tax strategies of Microsoft Corp., Hewlett-Packard Co. and other multinational companies, finding that they too have avoided billions in U.S. taxes by shifting profits offshore and exploiting weak, ambiguous sections of the tax code. Microsoft has used “aggressive” transactions to shift assets to subsidiaries in Puerto Rico, Ireland and Singapore, in part to avoid taxes. HP has used complex offshore loan transactions worth billions while using the money to run its U.S. operations, according to the panel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tone of the hearing turned tense before the Apple executives appeared, as Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., an anti-tax hawk who reflects tea party sentiment, insisted that the subcommittee apologize to Apple for unfair scapegoating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If anyone should be on trial here it should be Congress … for creating a bizarre and byzantine tax code,” said Paul. “If you want to assign blame, this committee needs to look in the mirror and see who created that mess.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Levin countered angrily that no such apology would be forthcoming. “Apple’s a great company, but no company should be able to determine how much it’s going to pay in taxes ….. by using gimmicks,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Sen. John McCain of Arizona, the subcommittee’s senior Republican, condemned Paul’s remarks as “offensive” for accusing Levin of bullying Apple executives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Levin called Ireland a “tax haven,” an appellation Irish Prime Minister Enda Kenny rejected when speaking in parliament in Dublin on Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are not a tax haven. American investors quite understand that. Our (taxation system) is statutory-based and clear and transparent and effective right across the board,” Kenny said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also denied the assertion in the subcommittee’s report that Apple had negotiated an Irish corporate tax rate of less than 2 percent. All companies pay the standard rate of 12.5 percent on profits from Irish operations, the prime minister said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Reports of lower effective tax rates appear to arrive at their figures by running together the profits earned by group companies in Ireland and in other jurisdictions,” Kenny said.\u003c/p>\n\n",

The companies are located at the same address in Cork, Ireland, and they share members of their boards of directors. While all five companies were incorporated in Ireland, only two of them also have tax residency in that country. That means the other three aren’t legally required to pay taxes in Ireland because they aren’t managed or controlled in that country, in Apple’s view.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The report says Apple capitalizes on a difference between U.S. and Irish rules regarding tax residency. In Ireland, a company must be managed and controlled in the country to be a tax resident. Under U.S. law, a company is a tax resident of the country in which it was established. Therefore, the Apple companies aren’t tax residents of Ireland or the U.S., since they weren’t incorporated in the U.S., in Apple’s view.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Apple is exploiting an absurdity,” Levin said at the start of the hearing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The core of Levin’s argument is that Apple has shifted intellectual property rights, like patents, to its Irish subsidiaries, which means other divisions pay royalties to those subsidiaries for their sales.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Intellectual property rights, like patents, are Apple’s “golden goose,” Levin said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Apple executives countered that the main company has kept the rights for North and South America, so only royalties for overseas sales flow to the Irish subsidiaries. Also, the Irish companies pay for some of research and development costs incurred at Apple’s headquarters in Cupertino, Calif.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What Apple is doing is pretty mainstream,” said accounting expert Robert Willens, in an interview.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The spotlight on Apple’s tax strategy comes at a time of fevered debate in Washington over whether and how to raise revenues to help reduce the federal deficit. Many Democrats complain that the government is missing out on billions of dollars because companies are stashing profits abroad and avoiding taxes. Republicans want to cut the corporate tax rate of 35 percent and ease the tax burden on money that U.S. companies make abroad. They say the move would encourage companies to invest at home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the two parties agree that reform is necessary, there is little agreement about what shape it would take. Throughout the hearing, senators on the panel seized on Apple’s situation to illustrate their belief that the U.S. tax system is in dire need of repair.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White House spokesman Jay Carney said the issue highlighted by the Senate panel’s report, unfairness in the U.S. tax code, is one of longstanding concern to President Barack Obama. Carney said Obama has long favored proposals “to ensure that American companies cannot use off-shore profit shifting to avoid paying taxes,” including a proposal for a minimum tax on foreign earnings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This has been a major priority of his because he thinks it is inexplicable that our tax code would actually be written in a way that rewards companies for taking jobs and profits offshore, and thereby penalizes companies for doing what we want them to do, which is create jobs and opportunity here in the United States,” Carney said Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thanks largely to the iPhone, Apple is one of the world’s most profitable companies. It earned $41.7 billion in calendar year 2012. It’s neck and neck with Exxon Mobil Corp. as the world’s most valuable company.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Apple’s Irish subsidiaries date back thirty years, to the time when the Macintosh computer was Apple’s banner product, and its profits were a fraction of 1 percent of today’s figure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Apple’s stock fell $2.74, or less than one percent, to $440.19 in Tuesday’s afternoon trading.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The subcommittee also has examined the tax strategies of Microsoft Corp., Hewlett-Packard Co. and other multinational companies, finding that they too have avoided billions in U.S. taxes by shifting profits offshore and exploiting weak, ambiguous sections of the tax code. Microsoft has used “aggressive” transactions to shift assets to subsidiaries in Puerto Rico, Ireland and Singapore, in part to avoid taxes. HP has used complex offshore loan transactions worth billions while using the money to run its U.S. operations, according to the panel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tone of the hearing turned tense before the Apple executives appeared, as Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., an anti-tax hawk who reflects tea party sentiment, insisted that the subcommittee apologize to Apple for unfair scapegoating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If anyone should be on trial here it should be Congress … for creating a bizarre and byzantine tax code,” said Paul. “If you want to assign blame, this committee needs to look in the mirror and see who created that mess.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Levin countered angrily that no such apology would be forthcoming. “Apple’s a great company, but no company should be able to determine how much it’s going to pay in taxes ….. by using gimmicks,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Sen. John McCain of Arizona, the subcommittee’s senior Republican, condemned Paul’s remarks as “offensive” for accusing Levin of bullying Apple executives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Levin called Ireland a “tax haven,” an appellation Irish Prime Minister Enda Kenny rejected when speaking in parliament in Dublin on Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are not a tax haven. American investors quite understand that. Our (taxation system) is statutory-based and clear and transparent and effective right across the board,” Kenny said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also denied the assertion in the subcommittee’s report that Apple had negotiated an Irish corporate tax rate of less than 2 percent. All companies pay the standard rate of 12.5 percent on profits from Irish operations, the prime minister said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Flickr is in fact getting \"biggr,\" now offering a free terabyte of storage space for photos and videos. From the company announcement: \"Just how big is a terabyte?

For many years, until Marissa Mayer took over as Yahoo’s CEO last year, Flickr languished inside the Internet giant, largely ignored while feisty startups like Instagram (acquired by Facebook a year ago) and Tumblr emerged as more innovative media‑sharing services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the process, Flickr seemingly missed opportunities with the explosions in social media and mobile devices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Flickr released an impressive new iPhone app last December, among other recent upgrades, and during a \u003ca href=\"http://www.7x7.com/tech-gadgets/inside-flickr\">visit \u003c/a>to Yahoo’s downtown San Francisco office last month, I asked Flickr executives about how things have changed since Mayer took the helm at Yahoo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Marissa is hugely supportive of Flickr,” said Brett Wayn, VP and general manager at Flickr.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She talks a lot about how Yahoo is about people’s daily habits, and about how we can make them inspirational and entertaining,” said Marcus Spiering, head of product for Flickr. “Photos are one of those daily habits—they make the world go round.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>(See Mayer’s own Flickr \u003ca href=\"http://www.flickr.com/photos/marissamayer\">stream\u003c/a> here.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wayn described Flickr’s current business model as harvesting four revenue streams: subscription fees (for “pro” accounts), advertising, a photo licensing deal with Getty Images, and a photo print partnership.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayer herself \u003ca href=\"http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2013/05/20/yahoo-tumblr-deal-announcement/2326531/\">promised\u003c/a> earlier today in a conference call with analysts to not “screw up” Tumblr, asserting it will be allowed to continuing operating as separate operation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But she also indicated that monetizing Tumblr content will be a priority—raising the prospect of advertisements that many Tumblr users might not welcome.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That type of controversy is reminiscent of Google’s purchase of YouTube 2006.

For many years, until Marissa Mayer took over as Yahoo’s CEO last year, Flickr languished inside the Internet giant, largely ignored while feisty startups like Instagram (acquired by Facebook a year ago) and Tumblr emerged as more innovative media‑sharing services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the process, Flickr seemingly missed opportunities with the explosions in social media and mobile devices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Flickr released an impressive new iPhone app last December, among other recent upgrades, and during a \u003ca href=\"http://www.7x7.com/tech-gadgets/inside-flickr\">visit \u003c/a>to Yahoo’s downtown San Francisco office last month, I asked Flickr executives about how things have changed since Mayer took the helm at Yahoo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Marissa is hugely supportive of Flickr,” said Brett Wayn, VP and general manager at Flickr.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She talks a lot about how Yahoo is about people’s daily habits, and about how we can make them inspirational and entertaining,” said Marcus Spiering, head of product for Flickr. “Photos are one of those daily habits—they make the world go round.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>(See Mayer’s own Flickr \u003ca href=\"http://www.flickr.com/photos/marissamayer\">stream\u003c/a> here.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wayn described Flickr’s current business model as harvesting four revenue streams: subscription fees (for “pro” accounts), advertising, a photo licensing deal with Getty Images, and a photo print partnership.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayer herself \u003ca href=\"http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2013/05/20/yahoo-tumblr-deal-announcement/2326531/\">promised\u003c/a> earlier today in a conference call with analysts to not “screw up” Tumblr, asserting it will be allowed to continuing operating as separate operation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But she also indicated that monetizing Tumblr content will be a priority—raising the prospect of advertisements that many Tumblr users might not welcome.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That type of controversy is reminiscent of Google’s purchase of YouTube 2006.

(Fred Dufour/AFP/Getty Images)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Michael Liedke, AP Technology Writer\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Yahoo is buying online blogging forum Tumblr for $1.1 billion as CEO Marissa Mayer tries to rejuvenate an Internet icon that had fallen behind the times.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The deal announced Monday is Mayer's boldest move since she left Google 10 months ago to lead Yahoo's latest comeback attempt. It marks Yahoo's most expensive acquisition since the Sunnyvale, Calif., company bought online search engine Overture a decade ago for $1.3 billion in cash and stock.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yahoo is paying mostly cash for Tumblr, dipping into what remains of a $7.6 billion windfall reaped last year from selling about half of its stake in Chinese Internet company Alibaba Holdings Group. Taking over Tumblr will devour about one-fifth of the $5.4 billion in cash that Yahoo had in its accounts at the end of March.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While hailing Tumblr as a fount of creativity that attracts 300 million visitors each month, Mayer told analysts Monday that she is \"making a sincere promise to not screw it up.\" David Karp, a high school dropout who started Tumblr six years ago, will remain in control of the service in an effort to retain the same \"irreverence, wit and commitment to empower creators,\" Yahoo said.\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Karp, 26, may now have a managerial mentor in Mayer, 37. Tumblr, which will remain based in New York, has about 175 employees while Yahoo has 11,300 workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayer, who worked closely with Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin during her time at the company, had high praise for Karp during Monday's conference call. \"David Karp is one of the most inspiring, insightful entrepreneurs that I have ever met,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his statement, Karp predicted Yahoo would help Tumblr grow even faster as he strives \"to make the Internet the ultimate creative canvas. \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The deal is expected to close during the second half of this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tumblr will now play a pivotal role in Mayer's attempt to reshape Yahoo. To take on the challenge, Mayer ended a highly successful 13-year career at Google, which she helped surpass Yahoo as the Internet's most influential company. Since coming to Yahoo, Mayer has concentrated on improving employee morale, redesigning services and bringing in more engineering talent through a series of small acquisitions that have collectively cost less than $50 million.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yahoo will still focus on mostly small deals, Mayer said. She seized the opportunity to buy Tumblr because she believes the service can accelerate her efforts to turn around Yahoo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Tumblr is a game changer,\" Mayer assured analysts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As popular as Tumblr has become, the service remains unprofitable. That is likely to raise questions about whether Yahoo paid too much in Mayer's zeal to gain control over a hot service. Facebook Inc. faced similar doubts last year when it bought Instagram, a rapidly growing photo sharing site, that also hadn't been trying to make money. Facebook initially agreed to pay $1 billion in stock for Instagram, but the value had fallen to $715 million by the time that deal closed. Facebook still hasn't proven it will be able to make money off of Instagram.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayer's efforts at Yahoo have been well-received on Wall Street so far, although most of the 69 percent surge in Yahoo's stock price under Mayer's leadership has been driven by the rising value of Yahoo's remaining 24 percent in Alibaba. When Alibaba goes public within the next few years, analysts have estimated Yahoo could collect another $10 billion to $20 billion by selling the rest of its Alibaba stock.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If this deal pays off the way Mayer envisions, Tumblr could help Yahoo finally get its stock price to $33. That would be a major coup because many investors soured on Yahoo after a previous regime led by co-founder Jerry Yang squandered an opportunity five years ago to sell the entire company to Microsoft for $33 per share. The stock spent more than four years trading below $20 before the recent surge. The shares gained 22 cents to $26.74 in Monday's morning trading.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The deal could backfire though if Yahoo's effort to make more money alienate a Tumblr user base that so far has been subjected to hardly any advertising during the service's six-year history.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Yahoo has to manage this acquisition in a way that keeps Tumblr's user base while trying to add advertising, which historically tends to turn off a lot of people,\" said Forrester Research analyst Zachary Reiss-Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayer said Yahoo will work with Tumblr to create ads that \"are tasteful and seamless.\" The company expects Tumblr to start increasing Yahoo's revenue next year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayer is betting that Tumblr will provide Yahoo with a captivating hook to reel in more traffic and advertisers on smartphones and tablet computers. That rapidly growing market is expected to become even more important during the next decade as people increasingly consume digital content on mobile devices instead of laptop and desktop machines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More than half of Tumblr's users connect to the service through the mobile app, and engage in an average of seven sessions per day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I would characterize Tumblr as being ahead of Yahoo in terms of its work on mobile,\" Mayer said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Besides offering one of the top mobile apps, Tumblr also runs one of the world's busiest websites, featuring 75 million daily posts about everything from politics to pets. Advertising has been a missing ingredient so far as Tumblr, like many online services in their early stages, focused on building a loyal audience before turning its attention to making money.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The deal also has some symbolic significance for Yahoo, an 18-year-old company that had spent much of the past decade aimlessly drifting under different management teams while Google Inc. overtook it in terms of size and influence. At the same time, newcomers such as Facebook Inc. and Twitter began to command the attention of people who found themselves spending less and less time on Yahoo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Part of Yahoo's problems stemmed from missed chances to improve its service and technology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yahoo flirted with potential acquisitions of Google and Facebook in those two companies' early days, only to have the talks unravel because Yahoo wasn't prepared to pay asking prices that were far below the current market values of Google ($300 billion) and Facebook ($63 billion). Yahoo also considered buying YouTube in 2006, only to be outbid by Google, which snapped up the world's leading online service for $1.76 billion — a price that now looks like a bargain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even when Yahoo did pull off deals, the company has been criticized for mismanaging a list of acquired services that includes photo-sharing Flickr, online help-wanted service HotJobs and content-sharing service Del.icio.us. Yahoo ended up selling HotJobs and Del.icio.us, but Mayer has been looking at ways to spruce up Flickr and blend its photos into more of Yahoo's other services. Mayer is expected to discuss more changes for Flickr at an event in New York Monday evening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tumblr could help Yahoo recapture some of its cachet with teens and adults in their early 20s, a demographic that has become tougher for Yahoo to reach in recent years as it fell behind the technological curve and struggled to develop compelling services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Facebook has turned into a mainstream social network where even grandparents now connect family and friends, Tumblr has become one of the places where the cool kids hang out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Tumblr is redefining creative expression online,\" Mayer said. \"On many levels, Tumblr and Yahoo couldn't be more different, but, at the same time, they couldn't be more complementary.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tumblr emerged as a trendy online hangout by providing a service that makes it easy to share blog posts, photos, video and other content in an enthralling mosaic. The service says it has amassed more than 50 billion posts from 108 million blogs. Tumblr users rely on a dashboard to pinpoint the kinds of blogs that they want to track and also have tools to pass along the posts that interest them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That wealth of content could be interwoven into Yahoo's other services that provide coverage of general news, sports, finance and entertainment. Tumblr also will fill Yahoo's gaping void in the realm of social media. Yahoo so far has had to connect its services to Facebook and Twitter to give its users a social networking outlet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Having its own social networking service will also give Yahoo more insights into the things that people like — a key to distributing ads to consumers most likely to be interested in a specific products. That data, in turn, should help Yahoo sell more ads and accelerate its revenue growth. After three successive years of declines, Yahoo's revenue rose slightly last year, but lagged far behind the growth at Google and Facebook. Mayer has vowed to bring Yahoo's revenue growth back to at least the level of the overall Internet ad market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yahoo's acquisition will deliver a jackpot to Karp, who dropped out of high school to concentrate on computer programming. He ended up being home schooled while taking classes in Japanese and working on gambling software. Later, he became a product executive at a parenting website called UrbanBaby. After CNet bought the site in 2006, Karp set up his own a development service called \"Davidville\" before deciding to create an outlet for personal expression — an endeavor that hatched Tumblr.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Karp's cut from the Yahoo deal is about $275 million. Most of the rest of the money will be paid to the venture capitalists that invested about $125 million into Tumblr. That list includes Spark Capital, Sequoia Capital, Greylock Partners, Union Square Ventures and Insight Venture Partners.\u003c/p>\n\n",

(Fred Dufour/AFP/Getty Images)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Michael Liedke, AP Technology Writer\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Yahoo is buying online blogging forum Tumblr for $1.1 billion as CEO Marissa Mayer tries to rejuvenate an Internet icon that had fallen behind the times.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The deal announced Monday is Mayer's boldest move since she left Google 10 months ago to lead Yahoo's latest comeback attempt. It marks Yahoo's most expensive acquisition since the Sunnyvale, Calif., company bought online search engine Overture a decade ago for $1.3 billion in cash and stock.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yahoo is paying mostly cash for Tumblr, dipping into what remains of a $7.6 billion windfall reaped last year from selling about half of its stake in Chinese Internet company Alibaba Holdings Group. Taking over Tumblr will devour about one-fifth of the $5.4 billion in cash that Yahoo had in its accounts at the end of March.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While hailing Tumblr as a fount of creativity that attracts 300 million visitors each month, Mayer told analysts Monday that she is \"making a sincere promise to not screw it up.\" David Karp, a high school dropout who started Tumblr six years ago, will remain in control of the service in an effort to retain the same \"irreverence, wit and commitment to empower creators,\" Yahoo said.\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Karp, 26, may now have a managerial mentor in Mayer, 37. Tumblr, which will remain based in New York, has about 175 employees while Yahoo has 11,300 workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayer, who worked closely with Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin during her time at the company, had high praise for Karp during Monday's conference call. \"David Karp is one of the most inspiring, insightful entrepreneurs that I have ever met,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his statement, Karp predicted Yahoo would help Tumblr grow even faster as he strives \"to make the Internet the ultimate creative canvas. \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The deal is expected to close during the second half of this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tumblr will now play a pivotal role in Mayer's attempt to reshape Yahoo. To take on the challenge, Mayer ended a highly successful 13-year career at Google, which she helped surpass Yahoo as the Internet's most influential company. Since coming to Yahoo, Mayer has concentrated on improving employee morale, redesigning services and bringing in more engineering talent through a series of small acquisitions that have collectively cost less than $50 million.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yahoo will still focus on mostly small deals, Mayer said. She seized the opportunity to buy Tumblr because she believes the service can accelerate her efforts to turn around Yahoo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Tumblr is a game changer,\" Mayer assured analysts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As popular as Tumblr has become, the service remains unprofitable. That is likely to raise questions about whether Yahoo paid too much in Mayer's zeal to gain control over a hot service. Facebook Inc. faced similar doubts last year when it bought Instagram, a rapidly growing photo sharing site, that also hadn't been trying to make money. Facebook initially agreed to pay $1 billion in stock for Instagram, but the value had fallen to $715 million by the time that deal closed. Facebook still hasn't proven it will be able to make money off of Instagram.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayer's efforts at Yahoo have been well-received on Wall Street so far, although most of the 69 percent surge in Yahoo's stock price under Mayer's leadership has been driven by the rising value of Yahoo's remaining 24 percent in Alibaba. When Alibaba goes public within the next few years, analysts have estimated Yahoo could collect another $10 billion to $20 billion by selling the rest of its Alibaba stock.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If this deal pays off the way Mayer envisions, Tumblr could help Yahoo finally get its stock price to $33. That would be a major coup because many investors soured on Yahoo after a previous regime led by co-founder Jerry Yang squandered an opportunity five years ago to sell the entire company to Microsoft for $33 per share. The stock spent more than four years trading below $20 before the recent surge. The shares gained 22 cents to $26.74 in Monday's morning trading.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The deal could backfire though if Yahoo's effort to make more money alienate a Tumblr user base that so far has been subjected to hardly any advertising during the service's six-year history.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Yahoo has to manage this acquisition in a way that keeps Tumblr's user base while trying to add advertising, which historically tends to turn off a lot of people,\" said Forrester Research analyst Zachary Reiss-Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayer said Yahoo will work with Tumblr to create ads that \"are tasteful and seamless.\" The company expects Tumblr to start increasing Yahoo's revenue next year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayer is betting that Tumblr will provide Yahoo with a captivating hook to reel in more traffic and advertisers on smartphones and tablet computers. That rapidly growing market is expected to become even more important during the next decade as people increasingly consume digital content on mobile devices instead of laptop and desktop machines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More than half of Tumblr's users connect to the service through the mobile app, and engage in an average of seven sessions per day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I would characterize Tumblr as being ahead of Yahoo in terms of its work on mobile,\" Mayer said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Besides offering one of the top mobile apps, Tumblr also runs one of the world's busiest websites, featuring 75 million daily posts about everything from politics to pets. Advertising has been a missing ingredient so far as Tumblr, like many online services in their early stages, focused on building a loyal audience before turning its attention to making money.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The deal also has some symbolic significance for Yahoo, an 18-year-old company that had spent much of the past decade aimlessly drifting under different management teams while Google Inc. overtook it in terms of size and influence. At the same time, newcomers such as Facebook Inc. and Twitter began to command the attention of people who found themselves spending less and less time on Yahoo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Part of Yahoo's problems stemmed from missed chances to improve its service and technology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yahoo flirted with potential acquisitions of Google and Facebook in those two companies' early days, only to have the talks unravel because Yahoo wasn't prepared to pay asking prices that were far below the current market values of Google ($300 billion) and Facebook ($63 billion). Yahoo also considered buying YouTube in 2006, only to be outbid by Google, which snapped up the world's leading online service for $1.76 billion — a price that now looks like a bargain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even when Yahoo did pull off deals, the company has been criticized for mismanaging a list of acquired services that includes photo-sharing Flickr, online help-wanted service HotJobs and content-sharing service Del.icio.us. Yahoo ended up selling HotJobs and Del.icio.us, but Mayer has been looking at ways to spruce up Flickr and blend its photos into more of Yahoo's other services. Mayer is expected to discuss more changes for Flickr at an event in New York Monday evening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tumblr could help Yahoo recapture some of its cachet with teens and adults in their early 20s, a demographic that has become tougher for Yahoo to reach in recent years as it fell behind the technological curve and struggled to develop compelling services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Facebook has turned into a mainstream social network where even grandparents now connect family and friends, Tumblr has become one of the places where the cool kids hang out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Tumblr is redefining creative expression online,\" Mayer said. \"On many levels, Tumblr and Yahoo couldn't be more different, but, at the same time, they couldn't be more complementary.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tumblr emerged as a trendy online hangout by providing a service that makes it easy to share blog posts, photos, video and other content in an enthralling mosaic. The service says it has amassed more than 50 billion posts from 108 million blogs. Tumblr users rely on a dashboard to pinpoint the kinds of blogs that they want to track and also have tools to pass along the posts that interest them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That wealth of content could be interwoven into Yahoo's other services that provide coverage of general news, sports, finance and entertainment. Tumblr also will fill Yahoo's gaping void in the realm of social media. Yahoo so far has had to connect its services to Facebook and Twitter to give its users a social networking outlet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Having its own social networking service will also give Yahoo more insights into the things that people like — a key to distributing ads to consumers most likely to be interested in a specific products. That data, in turn, should help Yahoo sell more ads and accelerate its revenue growth. After three successive years of declines, Yahoo's revenue rose slightly last year, but lagged far behind the growth at Google and Facebook. Mayer has vowed to bring Yahoo's revenue growth back to at least the level of the overall Internet ad market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yahoo's acquisition will deliver a jackpot to Karp, who dropped out of high school to concentrate on computer programming. He ended up being home schooled while taking classes in Japanese and working on gambling software. Later, he became a product executive at a parenting website called UrbanBaby. After CNet bought the site in 2006, Karp set up his own a development service called \"Davidville\" before deciding to create an outlet for personal expression — an endeavor that hatched Tumblr.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

We got phone numbers and lists of other places that might take our product.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While CropMobster seems to be unique in its mission connecting small farms with a wide range of consumers and nonprofits, there are other organizations and websites out there tackling different pieces of the \u003ca href=\"//www.good.is/posts/how-farms-restaurants-and-grocery-stores-are-designing-waste-out-of-the-food-system>.\" target=\"_blank\">waste problem\u003c/a>, which is not insignificant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dana Gunders, who researches food waste for the Natural Resources Defense Council, said a recent study found that in some cases 30 percent of food doesn’t make it off farms. She thinks CropMobster addresses one of the main problems with waste.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That is, that it’s often spontaneous, it’s inconsistent, and it’s hard for anyone to really build a business of this,” she says. “So the way the technology can enable this more organic solution is really powerful.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gunders said apps and websites are also popping up that connect larger farms with food banks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.foodcowboy.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Food Cowboy\u003c/a>, a new venture that wants to use technology \"to help truckers and food companies route fresh produce to charities instead of to landfills.\" The idea is to use the web to match those who need food with buyers who may have rejected a load.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And a company based in San Francisco – \u003ca href=\"http://www.foodstarpartners.com/about-foodstar.html\" target=\"_blank\">FoodStar\u003c/a> – is experimenting with the grocer Andronico’s to cheaply market commercial produce that doesn’t meet some standards, like an apple that is 37 percent rather than 40 percent red.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Champaign, Ill., a group has gotten together saying they will send hunger relief organizations text alerts when restaurants have leftovers. The website for \u003ca href=\"https://zeropercent.us/info.jsp\" target=\"_blank\">Zero Percent\u003c/a> says, “We created this system to make it as simple as possible for restaurants to donate food, and hence encourage donations of prepared and perishable yet edible food.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There does seem to be an increasing focus on reducing waste in the food chain. Because the waste happens at so many points, it will require multiple interventions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bloomfield’s Nick Papadopoulos said he’s excited by the opportunities CropMobster can offer farmers, food banks and everyday people who’d like to support their local foodshed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At its core, he says, it’s not a new concept. But the technology is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Gleaning is not a new tradition. What we need to do is think about using the new tools and the communities out there to take it to the next level.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
