Pride 2010: Internet powers Google and Yahoo in support of gay rights and equality

To mark 40th anniversary of Gay Pride festivals, Yahoo launched a dedicated page:

Yahoo! Celebrates Pride in 2010
Beginning this month and running through July, the LGBT community around the US will be celebrating 40 Years of Gay pride. Check out the full list of Pride events from around the country using the Yahoo! event finder, the most comprehensive list of LGBT festivals in any one place. Yahoo! is proud to support the LGBT community and wishes all a Happy 40th Gay Pride!
In the meantime, Google announced it will “raise the salaries of gay and lesbian employees whose partners receive domestic partner benefits, to compensate them for a tax they pay that heterosexual married couples do not.”
