IBM Acquired Vivisimo to get Velocity - not Yippy. Velocity turned into Watson after it was acquired by IBM. So IBM would have zero interest in Yippy, they are not competition.

Here's the IBM PR: IBM acquires Vivisimo

Yippy acquired Clusty.com from Vivisimo in 2010, NOT Velocity.

Here's the 2010 PR from Yippy - no mention at all of Velocity - because Vivisimo kept it, and IBM got it when they bought all of Vivisimo in 2012 - I think the claim in the current quarterly might be false.
