His Filo Server Program, written in the C programming language, was the server-side software used to dynamically serve variable web pages, called Filo Server Pages, on visits to early versions of the Yahoo! website. Personal life and educationFilo was born in Wisconsin. At age six, he moved to Moss Bluff, a suburb of Lake Charles, Louisiana. He graduated from Sam Houston High School and then earned a B.S. in computer engineering at Tulane University (through the Dean's Honor Scholarship) and an M.S. at Stanford University.[4] In 2005 he gave $30 million to his alma mater, Tulane University, for use in its School of Engineering.[5] Filo is married to photographer and teacher Angela Buenning.[6] In December 2014, Forbes estimated Filo to be worth $3.8 billion, ranking him the 580th-richest person in the world.[5] As of 2017, he is ranked 564th.[7] CareerIn February 1994, he co-created with Jerry Yang an Internet website called "Jerry and David's Guide to the World Wide Web", consisting of a directory of other websites. It was renamed "Yahoo!" (an exclamation). Yahoo! became very popular, and Filo and Yang realized the business potential and co-founded Yahoo! Inc.[8] Yahoo! started off as a web portal with a web directory providing an extensive range of products and services for various online activities. It is now one of the leading internet brands and, due to partnerships with telecommunications firms, is one of the most visited websites on the internet.[9][10] References1. ^{{citation|url=http://sul-derivatives.stanford.edu/derivative?CSNID=00002307&mediaType=application/pdf|title=Centennial Year Commencement Exercises|publisher=Stanford University|page=69|date=June 16, 1991}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://files.shareholder.com/downloads/YHOO/1339034542x0x464920/0368bf48-b7ed-4222-8ee1-f61c585fbe81/YHOO_2011_Proxy_Statement.pdf|title=Yahoo! 2011 Proxy Statement|accessdate=28 July 2011}} 3. ^[https://www.forbes.com/profile/david-filo/ David Filo] 4. ^{{Cite news| url = https://www.forbes.com/profile/david-filo/|title=David Filo|publisher=Forbes |date =October 17, 2014}} 5. ^1 {{cite web|url=https://www.forbes.com/profile/david-filo|title=Forbes 400 Richest Americans: #292 David Filo|date=March 2013|publisher=Forbes}} 6. ^Another billionaire drops {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081205010811/http://valleywag.com/tech/yahoo-party/another-billionaire-drops-220835.php |date=December 5, 2008 }} 7. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.forbes.com/billionaires/list/13/#version:static|title=The World's Billionaires|work=Forbes|access-date=2017-05-24|language=en}} 8. ^[https://web.archive.org/web/20070918225007/http://yhoo.client.shareholder.com/press/history.cfm Yahoo!
