Tomorrow I (and probably Dr. Tim) will be having a sit down chat with David Filo.. Yes.. THAT David Filo anyway I have a couple of questions to ask myself but I’m opening it out to the readers of this blog, post your questions here and tomorrow I will try and ask them (not sure if we can bring a video camera or not but we will try!).
David will have done quite a few blogger interviews by this point so we are trying to make this a bit special, so no boring questions ;) (but also no question’s that will make him or Yahoo look silly, they have been great in giving us this time)

My question would be, would David consider investing in the future. Specifically in a research programme into Time Travel, and by doing so, guarantee himself a few time travelling experiences?
Do David/Yahoo have any projects underway aimed specifically at the older age group ’silver surfers’? (not asking for great details as probably ’secret’) If not have they identified/thought about this growing area of users.
The statistics say there will be more of us than under 25 year olds before too long! Plus here in the UK the .gov quoted aim is to get all households online either via computers or TV sets.
Ask the nice man if he thinks email still has a future; and if he does, what features of Yahoo Mail that promise to fix email’s problems excite him the most
My first question would be: How do you say your name? Is it Fy-lo like ‘Filofax’ or Fee-lo like ‘Filo pastry’ ?
My second question is inspired by the time travel question above: You seem to have a bit of spare cash lying around – what’s the most awesome thing you’ve ever invested in?
Some of questions:
(1) What’s the most compelling reason for me to use Yahoo over Google or Live? Well, not that I would ever use Live but you know…
(2) Are you worried about the return of Jeeves?
(3) What are your thoughts on <a href=”http://www.wolframalpha.com/”Wolfram Alpha? Flash in the pan or Google Killer?
A plague upon my keyboard’s house.
