It has been a busy month since Shashi Seth joined Yahoo! as our new Senior Vice President of Yahoo! Search Products. Shashi brings with him a wealth of experience from Google, eBay, Cooliris, and AOL. As the head of Search, Shashi has emphasized his commitment to Yahoo!’s stake in the search market. In this video, he talks about his first month at Yahoo! and clarifies what he sees as some of the most important aspects of the agreement with Microsoft.
With the Microsoft search alliance, “there is a great opportunity for us to change the game in search by focusing on the consumer experience and bringing things to the front end of search like real time information, shortcuts, vertical intent, query analysis, and suggestions,” Shashi says. “The deal could bring a lot of great things for us especially in focusing on the consumer experience.”
Find out more about Shashi’s first month at Yahoo! in the video above.

Shashi would be a great asset to yahoo, he already has a very successful track record of delivery and with yahoo’s alliance with microsoft, he couldn’t have joined at a much better time!
I have searched on Yahoo for more than 20 minutes to find Mr. Sashi’s personal website or his blog but couldn’t find any. It would be great if a person like him with so much experience and knowledge to have a personal website where we could ask him questions and learn from him.
Actually you have a very nice blog..
i like shashi..
Hope Shashi will take advantage from the Microsoft – Yahoo agreement to promote better services and creative solutions..
Yahoo has been an innovator in many tools for it’s customers, to start the iYahoo, suggestions on search as other services!!
Hope He will bring better services as well!
