As a part of the Microsoft-Yahoo search deal, about 400 Yahoos will soon start working for Microsoft instead.
SAI's Dan Frommer unearthed the news in Yahoo's SEC filing on the deal yesterday:
Microsoft will hire no less than 400 Yahoo employees and will pay them competitively. The companies will also agree on a retention plan to keep those 400 and an additional 150 Yahoo employees to help in the transition.
What will it be like, moving from a bleeding-purple Silicon Valley startup made-good to the corporate empire that is Microsoft? We don't know.
But some of our favorite blogs on Microsoft's business and its working life include:
- Mini-Microsoft -- Written by an anonymous guy who wants to make Microsoft tiny. He's a big fan of the "peanut butter manifesto."
- Office Offline -- A comic strip written by a Microsoft Office engineer.
- Microspotting -- An official Microsoft blog that looks at the lives of employees. Not too cheesy.
- All about Microsoft -- Mary Jo Foley wrote the book on Microsoft. Or like 7 of them.
Also, Yahoos-turned-Microsofties might want to meet their new search boss, Satya Nadella. Kara Swisher sat for an interview with him, and we've embedded it here:

雅虎向微软派遣400多名员工
作为微软-雅虎搜索引擎合作协议的一部分，400多名雅虎人将很快加入到微软开始工作。
SAI的Dan Frommer透露昨天雅虎正式向美国证交会上报此项合作:
微软至少将招聘400名雅虎员工, 并支付丰厚的工作。双方同意采用留任计划，以保证550名雅虎员工参与到此次合作的交接过渡中。
正在流血的硅谷创业公司雅虎为向业界大鳄微软交好，要求其员工易主，这样会是什么心情呢? 我们不得而知。
下面是一些我们最喜欢的博客，他们专注于微软业务和工作方式：
- 迷你微软 -- 博主是个想要迷你化微软的无名氏，他是“花生酱宣言”的粉丝。
- 办公软件在线 -- 这是由微软Office软件工程师写的幽默天地。
- 微软天地 -- 这是微软的官方博客，专注于员工生活，质量还不错。
- 微软诸事-- Mary Jo Foley写的关于微软的书，这只是7本中的一本。
同时，这些即将成为微软人的雅虎人可能都希望见一下他们未来的新老板，Satya Nadella。Kara Swisher在此对他进行了访问，请看我们提供的视频：
