The Rise Of Yippy on i-newswire: In a world where
Post# of 144482
In a world where the need for domestic security is a grim reality, Yippy may be able to outclass the rest.
Founded three years ago, Yippy Inc. is said to be, by CEO Richard Granville, "… the finest engine for censorship on Earth,"
Designed for institutional use in schools and libraries, Yippy utilizes technology that is even ahead of Google. Velocity, the cloud clustering technology that drives Yippy is actually owned by IBM and is now being used to enhance IBM's "Watson" computer. To date Yippy is the only other company licensed to use this technology. Google, in fact, has had to partner with IBM to gain access to this technology in order to keep up with the future of cloud technology.
But Yippy isn't trying to be the next Google. The company operates on the principle of safe search for ages K - 12, filtering out all questionable, violent, and profane material. With growing security concerns about what our children and foreign enemies can access, the US government should take notice.
Though there are broad changes taking place to monitor potential threats, there is nothing currently to prevent someone anonymously searching dangerous materials in our public schools and libraries. With the Department of Homeland Security integrated into our public transportation hubs, it seems a logical evolution for a singular and well regulated search engine securing our public buildings. Yippy is the best positioned for this task.
But what will it take for the government to notice? Yippy seems to believe it will take a buyout from a larger tech company. This is an opportunity for Google and Yippy. A merger with Google would ensure the national recognition Yippy deserves and Google could be freed of dependence on IBM to access the Velocity technology. Granville is well aware of this and on April 20th the Yippy board voted to hire an M&A firm for that purpose. In commenting on the possibility of such a merger, Granville knows it's inevitable when he says, "As soon as the thing takes off, they'll just take us out,"
With a record quarter and the anticipation of exceeding a million dollars in revenue next year, it seems Yippy is taking off and the process of courting larger tech companies has begun. Yippy has recently lifted restrictions on inside trades and the stock is currently trading at $0.20 from $0.11 back in April.
In these tough times the future for Yippy is bright. If a merger with Google is finalized, which it seems it will be, the Yippy trademark slogan "Welcome to the cloud" will serve as a game changing irony for both Yippy, Google, and the world.
