“Shrinking share could also have another effect: driving Yahoo’s search business into Microsoft’s open arms.”

Umm–no–logical error here. The share will go to Google– you know– the search engine that returns useful results.

I just wish Yahoo would stop messing with its services. Last week, I logged into my E-mail, and they had this nasty “search for mobile phones I can E-mail to” thing going on that sucked up all my CPU cycles. Their spam filter is HORRIBLE– too much stuff gets thrown there, and, sometimes a DAY LATE. I had that happen to an important E-mail this week. I was so disgusted, I just decided to turn the filter off. Of course, all the phony “we need your bank of America account numbers for verification” phishing stuff gets through. And the server performance has been bad– come back LATER for your E-mail.
