Yahoo cements UC partnership / Research lab to be established near Berkeley campus

I know Marc and his research well – I donated a bunch of phones to his labs, too. What I do know is  what he does in the mobile multimedia space. I also know what he’s thinking and it’s going to be one heck of a lab.

I wonder if I should move to Berkeley? I wonder if Nokia would be interested in some sort of three-way lab? Nah, two-way labs are already complicated.

But, I think Marc’s going to create and transfer some really great mobile multimedia stuff to Yahoo in the next few years. Yep, Yahoo is still doing many of the right things in the mobile space. Poor Google.

Go Marc.

The Sunnyvale Web portal plans to unveil a partnership today with UC Berkeley to open a research lab near the university campus.

The collaboration is intended to tap Berkeley’s student and faculty brain power to create the next generation of online technology. Yahoo hopes to use any innovation from the lab on its Web portal, among the Internet’s most popular destinations.
