Agree with you to some degree.

Yahoo has been selling off many of it's assets over the years, supposedly, to focus on core business. But then their decisions seem to keep torpedoing their 'core business', so it would appear they have no clear idea of what they are doing long term.

Beyond trying to get a better stock price maybe.

It's really kind of sad. I used to use Yahoo IM and listen to their music all day long. Paid for the subscription to the player (sold). I would watch launchcast (sold). I would play in Yahoo Chat rooms a lot (porn bot hell, junk). I used their mail as my main, not home based, email provider (now crap) I used to actually take the time to check their SERPS on my sites, and work on tailoring the rankings for them.

Now.....
