Yahoo announced earlier today that they have purchased for $1.1 billion. The agreement, which had rumors floating around since last Thursday, will help Yahoo relate to the younger, active online user base that Tumblr provides.
However, the deal does raise some concerns from the Tumblr faithful. These people are worried that Yahoo will flood the blog site with ads, since that is primarily what makes Yahoo their money. Up until now, Tumblr founder David Karp has resisted the use of traditional advertising on Tumblr. However Yahoo has promised not to “mess up” Tumblr.
Yahoo has stated that Tumblr will continue to be independently operated as a separate business with Karp staying on as the CEO.
Yahoo CEO (Mayer) compared the deal to some of the most successful tech acquisitions in the past like Google’s purchase of YouTube and the purchase of PayPal by eBay (EBAY,Fortune 500), combinations that she said were virtually invisible to users of the Web sites that were being acquired.
We will see what new changes come with this purchase. Until then, share your thoughts!

So everyone (according to twitter) saw the Billboard Awards last night.
First off, shoutout to Taylor Swift and her 3.7 million-selling “Red” album for winning home eight awards. That is ALL ima say about her.
Meanwhile, my girl Rihanna ruled the R&B categories taking home four awards. Rihanna won the R&B artist of the year, album and song categories, plus Radio Song Airplay Artist of the Year. Everyone should be able to agree with that, knowing that anytime you turn on ANY station, you can hear songs from Diamonds, Stay and Nobody’s Business to Pour it Up and Loveeee Song. She always has a song on someone’s station. While she wasn’t physically at the show (in TRUE Beyonce fashion), she still was a winner and that is what counts.
Other winners included Nicki Minaj, who took home three awards, including ones for RAP ARTIST and RAP ALBUM of the Year???? #pause No shade to Nicki Minaj but EVERYONE knows that “Roman Reloaded” was not a rap album! It had about 9 true rap songs and about 15 pop songs, but hey, she won.
One Direction won three each while Justin Bieber won two awards apiece.
The Milestone Award, was voted on by fans and was awarded to Justin Bieber, who paused for about 10 seconds before speaking his mind about the boo’s that greeted him as he accepted the award. “I’m 19 years old, and I think I’m doing a pretty good job,” he said before thanking his family, fans and Jesus Christ. “It should be about the music, about the craft. This is not a gimmick. I should be taken seriously.”
The three-hour show came on ABC and featured 16 performances.
Prince came out an performed a medley of his classic “Let’s Go Crazy,” Edgar Winter’s instrumental “Frankenstein” and “Fix Ur Life Up”. He recieved the Icon Award, for a career that included 10 platinum albums and 30 Top 40 singles. That is EPIC.
We got to see Jennifer Lopez and Pitbull perform “Live It Up” for the 3rd time that week, not to mention the excessive commercial that kept playing with the same song in it. Then Pitbull got some more shine as he hit the stage with Christina Aguilera.
Bruno Mars and his band was the opener performing his new single “Treasure.” Bruno Performance
Of course my man Chris Brown performed his new single “Fine China.” While the performance got mixed reviews from twitter, I personally thought it was pretty good. Of course the vocals could have been better, but if you actually listen to the original “Fine China”, you could already know that Breezy would have vocal issues performing the song while dancing also. Still #TeamBreezy for life, but those vocals are in serious need of improvement my guy!
Nicki Minaj performed her song with Lil Wayne called “High School”. The performance was nothing less than steamy, with Nicki coming out looking like a sexy female MC ready to spit hot fire at first, she turned into her feminine side as she game Lil Wayne one of the sexiest lap dances since the Destiny’s Child BET Awards Lap Dance, yeaaaa you know which one I speak of!
Miguel had this to say about the incident, “The crazy thing is, when you’re performing and you’re just kind of into it, you never know where it’s gonna go and where you’re gonna go with it,” said Miguel. “And how that might turn out. So this is one of the less favorable moments.”
Guetta, who won in the new category of EDM artist and performed with Akon and Ne-Yo. Now……Ne-Yo has been having a string of BAD live performances lately, including the NBA All Star Game, and the awards was nothing different. When Akon sounds better live than you do, it’s time to have a seat Ne-YO!
Last but not least, Miguel performed “Adorn”. The performance was ok, as he usually is, however his set ended pretty horribly I guess when he landed on not ONE, but TWO fans while attempting to jump across the audience. Sir, you know you are not Superman! Lol
Well Hip-Hop fans! It’s that time again! Let’s see what the crazy women of Love and Hip Hop Atlanta are up to this week.
First off we see the newbies, Traci Steele and DJ Babey Drew. Last week, Drew and Traci got into a huge argument over relationships and money. This week, Drew calls Traci to a bar to lay down some new “rules” to make sure their friendship works out. Traci begins crying because she said she’s never loved someone as much as Drew. After Drew makes sure Traci knows that they haven’t been together in 7 years, he finally tells her the real reason why she got called there: For the store money! Traci decides that its best they keep business separate from personal and so she agrees to come to the store at another time to talk business.
The new man that Mimi has been talking about finally was revealed this week. The man’s name is Nikko, and he has been in Mimi’s life for 13 years apparently and he clearly makes her much happier than Stevie. Mimi invited her girls K. Michelle, Erica and Arianne out for the night to introduce them to her new man. While meeting up, Erica decides to show the girls that she was without her engagement ring which led to a shocking discovery that she had ended her relationship with Scrappy.
Karlie Redd and Benzino meet up to finally discuss this whole fiasco that included them allegedly watching a video of Joseline “doing” herself. As Benzino continues to deny that they did such a thing, Karlie Redd gets mad and throws something at Benzino and storms off. Benzino really wasn’t even concerned with her though.
This week, Kirk sits down with his wife Rasheeda, to bring her a new idea. He wants her to make a diss record with Karlie Redd, about K. Michelle. WOW! How could Kirk really want to do that? But Rasheeda wasn’t feeling the idea, and actually went off on Kirk for not supporting her movement of her online business “Im Bossy” .com, to a physical store in Atlanta. To make matters worse, Rasheeda and Erica get together to talk and Rasheeda drops the biggest bomb of the season: SHE IS PREGNANT!
K. Michelle is just too much me tonight though. Her only major scene included her discussing ways to “bedazzle” her …..errrr…..area….to attract more men. I have so much to say about her CRAZY behind, that I might just save it for later. Oh by the way, K. Michelle has OFFICIALLY moved to NYC now and has a new single called “V.S.O.P”…….OF COURSE the title has liquor in it! Lmao. But you can get it here if you want atlr.ec/kmvsop .
Lastly, Stevie J is the biggest player ALIVE right now. He opens up celebrating his one year anniversary seeing Joseline at a steamy hotel. She asks him if he loves her, and he replies “I love you like a fat girl love cake”. LMAO. Then we see him in the studio, with an old artist that is trying to come back to work under him. However this new chick, who looks like a broke down version of Joseline, decides to act CRAZY at Harlem Nights, trying to meet Joseline. Ms. Hernadez was not having that and basically said “I don’t talk to the help”. She is crazy! Lastly we visit Stevie J and Joseline and Karlie Redd. Joseline and Karlie confront each other about the whole Benzino situation and the scene ends in a fight.
What will happen next week? Guess we will have to find out next week.
