What Happened To Yahoo!?!?!?

Whats going on with Yahoo.

Why did they switch to picking up results from Google by default instead of from their directory.

I mean if theyre going to use Google by default (with minor reference to the directory listing) then whats the incentive for being listed in their directory?

Is this old news? Am I missing something?

Wow..... weird. They may aswell just erase the site and use Overture listings.

What are they gonna do with the directory listings? To use an American expression, "they'll suck big time".

And why did they buy Inktomi? Inktomi was crap.

Sorry its just I dont see why they waste theyre time.

Overture should take Google as their non-paid listings and Yahoo will take Overture for all listings. Then Overture handles the paid and google will automatically fill the non-paid with theyre dumb adwords filling in the blanks.

Simple solution.... but they have to fuck about and do these "partnership" and "were reviewing our options" bullshit dancy prancy shit.

Fuckers..... they should just merge and be done with it.
