David Filo
|
David Filo is the somewhat media-shy co-founder of Yahoo! with Jerry Yang.
A native of Moss Bluff, Louisiana, he earned his BS in Computer Engineering from Tulane University and an MS from Stanford University.
Until the company recently decided to switch to PHP, his Filo Server program, written in C, would provide Filo Server Pages that brokered requests from the Yahoo home page.
