By: Andy Beal 2008-12-05 A couple of weeks ago, we reported on rumors that Yahoos Dr. Qi Lu had left the company to join Microsoft. Whether or not he left Yahoo with a Microsoft ... ... offer-letter in hand"we suspect he did"Dr. Lu has indeed resurfaced at Microsoft. According to the official release from Microsoft:
Dr. Lu played an instrumental role in the development of Yahoos search platform, which begs the question; what did Microsoft just achieve? Is it a) why acquire Yahoo, when you can hire the guy that built its search platform? Or b) hire the guy that built Yahoos search platform"which has never lived up to its full potential and still lags way behind Google. Whatever the answer, Dr. Lu will officially start work at Microsoft on January 5th.
