   Why did Yang & Filo start working on Yahoo?

   • The pair began working on the directory to the exclusion of almost everything else. It was an all-consuming project, an obsession. They would toil away on Yahoo for dozens of hours at a stretch, trading off sleeping on the floor, only to go back to more searching and more indexing. For Yang and Filo, it wasn’t work; it was fun.
