EIC Squared podcast: Yahoo exodus, Firefox 3, Gates' final days and more...

by Dan Farber

On this week's EIC Squared podcast, ZDNet's Larry Dignan and I discuss the executive exodus at Yahoo, the launch of Firefox 3 and Bill Gates' last days as a full-time Microsoftie. We also talk about the impact of millennials, the younger generation brought up digitally, on the corporate workplace. Will they turn off their Facebook, MySpace, iPod, and Twitter while they crunch numbers for a sales report or resolve configuration problems in a data center?

Dan Farber is editor in chief of CBS Interactive News, which includes CBSNews.com and CNET News. He has more than 25 years of experience as an editor and journalist covering technology. E-mail Dan.
