It's getting worse

You guys posted a day early. They're down another 5% today. Pretty soon, the price will be less than half of what MS was willing to pay.

Thank you Jerry

I'm so glad that Jerry Yang passed on the "undervalued" MS offer of $33/share - it is good to see a man with a vision who instead has turned this into an $18/share stock on its way to the low teens.

I wonder what Yanger's spin will be when MS comes in with a $25 offer? Waahhhhhh... that's not fair they offered $33 previously - I have no time for this as I'm busy re-arranging the deck chairs on this large boat. In the meantime you can send email to jyang@google.com

Yahoo! Plan Lost

Yahoo! Please focus on your valuable assets.

For example, shopping.yahoo.com used to be extremely helpful because it was the central address for lots of small and medium-sized businesses. Yahoo also hosts the web sites of these enterprises. Now shopping.yahoo.com is next to useless, because the search results are infested with tons of less useful references to eBay.

Yahoo's dead and MSN without a plan

I supported the complete buyout offer of Yahoo by MS because it would have given both companies the chance to compete against Google. Yahoo games for Windows Live! cross platform play with XBox Live! would have kicked some serious butt. But Yang and associates proved they don't deserve their job title or ridiculous salaries they collect. I regularly find myself on Google's many sub-sites and trying out their new technologies. Yahoo Games, MapQuest, the annoying search bar that every 3rd party app seems to have bundled, etc from Yahoo are old, decaying, or bloat ware. The MSN network is even worse with half azz attempts at warding off Google with silver medals going out to 2-3 apps. Google was, is, and will be the dominant player on the web space and is only cementing it with Android OS. Yes, it's not as nice as the iPhone, but it's not about that. Mobile OS will be pervasive as almost all devices move to connect us to the web.

INQ Poll

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
