Yahoo dumps Google

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmp...01060157000411

It wouldn't dent Google's dominance in search...that's my bet.

Where have you been. This is old news by a couple of months.

The strategy isn't simply to match what Google does now but to add features its rival can't easily match.

What does Yahoo have that Google can't match? Google has a directory, they have news, Froogle, usenet, image search, they have PPC results. They don't have banners and full page ads, which Yahoo does. I guess those annoying advertising bonuses will make people want to use Yahoo more.

Yeah I havent used Yahoo for searching in years anyways.

Used to be pretty sweet getting an adult site listed in their directory though. 5-10k of the creamiest hits / day with the right keywords.

Nothing new, btw the CEO of Google is also CEO of Yahoo if I have good memory.....but maybe I wrong.

Nope. Terry Semel is not the CEO of Google. If it were then this would be a serious conflict of interest and breach of fiduciary duty on his part.
