Economy of America just sucks. It affects everything

**mynameisjim** · 10-21-2008, 04:11 PM

They should of merged with Microsoft.

Yahoo has more traffic then Google, they just can't make money off it. Say what you will about Microsoft, but they know how to make money.

Google announcing "strong" growth despite the economy due to search advertising... hmmm

Makes me wonder if were not so much in the wrong market despite a potential democratic party in office

Yahoo screw their advertisers.
The only good thing with a Yahoo and Google merger is that yahoo will start to give good results.

Thats what I meant, but no they are not currently using Google's algo although it would be interesting to see what would happen.
