As Bill Gates takes a step back from Microsoft Corp. to set a new standard for social responsibility, other technology companies are aiming to find new types of corporate giving for the Internet age.
Yahoo Inc. yesterday announced a partnership with One.org, an organization that fights AIDS and poverty.

The program aims to take on five similar projects a year to apply technology to charitable causes."
