David Filo
David Filo is the somewhat media-shy co-founder of
Yahoo!
with
Jerry Yang.
A native of
Moss Bluff, Louisiana, he earned his BS in Computer Engineering from Tulane
University and an MS from Stanford University.
Until the company recently decided to switch to
PHP, his Filo Server
program, written in
C, would provide Filo Server Pages that brokered requests from the Yahoo
home page.
As a philanthropist, in 2005 he donated $30 million to his alma mater,
Tulane University.
