IAC Split Up Conference Call Summary

November 5, 2007
Filed Under Ask | 2 Comments

In the call it was stated that Barry Diller will continue as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of IAC. There are a ton of other reports. I won’t repeat all of that, I’ll just point out the conference call highlights. He’s quite animated and interesting to listen to, I wish he did loosely structured calls like this more often.

- The new metric is query growth – I find that to a strong signal about ask.com and other properties

- On Video – there is so much runway ahead

- Mobile – nobody has really started yet

- Internet advertising is effective and trackable

This is an exciting change for IAC, look for good things in 2008.
