I feel so sorry for Yahoo right now. But some things must pass, and in the end all things do. Hopefully they will rejuvenate and keep themselves whole, but right now it appears they've been courting with dangerous relationships a little too long now.

This is like sleeping with the enemy on the same bed!!! It's a typical story of the biblical samson and delilah story!! With Microsoft resolve to buy at all cost, don't expect Yahoo to survive beyond this year: The MicroHoo Saga Continues(http://www.internetevolution.com/author.asp?section_id=466&doc_id=158409&F_src=flftwo)

This is the BEST THING THAT HAS HAPPENED TO MICROSOFT IN YEARS. Why? Look at the Icahn record. He has basically KILLED everything that he has ever touched. He knew nothing about airlines and killed all that he touched. He is certainly no programmer, no techno geek, no visionary, no guru and he probably has trouble with e-mail.

Yahoo should have advertised how terrible Icahn is and how inept he has been. His track record is a D- and that may be kind. Yahoo can only get in trouble with this guy and who will benefit... Google and Microsoft of course.

Mark this as the beginning of the end of Yahoo and watch Icahn drive this thing into the dirt like he has all other things that he touches. He has no techno-credit to his name, but he has terrible results with the things he has touched. "This is the end my friends, the end... " (The Doors)

The two search titans, Google and Yahoo, would also suffer as a direct result of growing Internet click fraud... http://tyneham.blogspot.com
