From the absolutely mundane to moments of high political tension, this week kept us on our toes. In particular, one of the cofounders of Yahoo, Jerry Yang, now a part of the Internet old-guard, this week resigned. With a new CEO and looming questions over the role Alibaba may play in Yahoo's future, the resignation introduces many questions.

But if you're more in the mood for something else this week, there was plenty to keep us busy: From increasing strain on Pakistan-United States relations to a bed in the shape of the Facebook logo that allows you to stay connected in your sleep, there was never a dull moment.

As you know, it was a short week this week, so there's no Back 9 from Monday. But rest assured, next week we'll be back in all our Back 9 Monday glory!

Should you want a daily dose of the Back 9, check back every evening around 6 p.m.. Now, onto the links.
