CrunchWeek: Microsoft’s Big Layoffs, Airbnb’s New Logo Controversy, Yo Funding


This week in tech news was a mixed bag: On the sad side, we saw thousands of layoffs from Microsoft. On the ridiculous side, we saw Airbnb debut a new brand logo that effectively served as a Rorschach test for everyone who saw it (and apparently a lot of people have dirty things on the brain.) And on the crazy side — or perhaps, crazy like a fox? — we saw Yo officially announce that it’s raised $1.5 million in funding from a number of tech investors including Betaworks.

Watch Alex Wilhelm, Sarah Buhr, and I talk about all of that in the episode of CrunchWeek embedded above.
