This whole hoopla on Yahoo could be tiring. Jerry Yang might be smart in many aspects of technology but I don’t think he is smart in all decisions making. This is the same guy who turned down the offer to buy Google [at infancy] for paltry $4 million – a mistake, he probably would live with for the rest of his life. Now he is getting another big shot with Microsoft but he’s being posed by “founding father syndrome” I just don’t think he is doing the best for Yahoo!

Yahoo on the other hand can capitalize on their business – in many way’s all they have to do is copy google (aquire other non english ad placing company’s or form partnerships with them).
