26、The Internet is a big place．No one has enough time to find everything on the Internet．Yahoo gives us a lot of help．

Two Stanford University students, Jerry Yang and David Filo started it in 1994．They made a list of their favorite webpages．When their list got bigger, they make a database (数据库) to keep all the information．They let everyone use it for free．Soon, thousands of people were using it．

Then they made a new kind of software．It could store much information, so people can find information by using it．If you look for "animals", it will give you a list of webpages with the word．

Yahoo became a public company in 1996．As the company grew, Yang and Filo went on working hard．They put more uses in the software, such as shopping, free e-mails, etc．They started Yahoo in many different countries and in different languages．
