Well, in my humble opinion, Yahoo! is a better search engine than Bing, I understand this deal will try to increase the share market and internet advertising, but what about identity? How will you handle this dilemma? I am Yahoo! fan since I began using internet.

i cant believe search companies n browsers are still holding onto domains, i guess its coz they still are big business ….i mean its sad when someone has got cats.com and now only some obscure domain is available for buy
we are actually seeing most search results already behaving as apps, this should evolve …. will websites and domains cease to exist and self modifying real time and evolving apps provide knowledge networked by something like yahoo! pipes
the trick is in getting the individual search bot right

we sure are stepping into the next search landscape and it seems many search companies are working on the next search technology, i cant wait to try out the next generation search engine
- the time is right to get search right -

Boat loads of money? Shareholder Value? right now the market is saying we don’t trust Yahoo to do the the right thing by Shareholders—Leadership at Yahoo must turn this around or risk being another AOL.

New CEO comes in, see that the company is more broken than she can fix, know that means her options aren’t going to make her rich(er), goes for the easy stock bump.

Honestly, is anyone surprised?

That’s the second time that the shareholders have been badly represented by Yahoo management (new and old). And I have some bad news…I’ve tried BING….I don’t like it….it doesn’t return the things that I want.

when i did a search for bmw india, i got only one sponsored ad, i guess its coz their are not many companies/brands that match for relevance. if we ask why cant a nokia or a airtel ad come up for bmw india.
we can have a app on the right of the page where companies like nokia, airtel, maruti, many more companies post search results for bmw india or 15 word tweet like post about bmw india. now these are companies have their logo and ad about their product in the display and these displays can be moved left to right like a carosoul.

so basically for search query bmw india, various brands are offering insights or search results.

Well, it seems that for the past few years, Yahoo, while failing to do anything useful commercially, has at least had some interesting technical and research innovation in search, IR, and related fields.

But now that they’ve thrown that away — “redundancies” — to focus on marketing, there is no longer any point to bothering with them at all, from my point of view.

This is sooo…SAD!!!!!!! I work for God and to SEE “the search engine part” of Yahoo!, fall into “evil hands” TODAY…REALLY MAKES ME WANT TO CRY!!!!!!! This is “THE END” of Yahoo! as WE ever WILL know it…PERMANENTLY!!!

I used to LOVE it, NOW like EVERYONE Else is, I’m Switching to “GOOGLE!”, PERMANENTLY!!!

Although, “PATIENCE is TRUSTING in “God’s” TIMING…”

I will NEVER take a BILLION dollars from gates, if he offered it!!!!!!!! He ALWAYS has a “Motive” behind his ‘every move’ and lies and lies and lies…

I am so saddened I must write this note.

I was a hotmail user and then a rocketmail user.

I have seen things happen throughout the years.

I have heard the lies from Microsoft.

I think I can honestly say the following:
everything that Microsoft gets involved with becomes
not as good as it was before
irrelevant, and useless.
Wittiness the worthless bing.

So it looks like Yahoo will be the next victim.
It is simple to see why.
Microsoft needs to feed on and devour any company with good coding skills, be cause the way the company is structured it is incapable of producing anything good themselves.

It is starting the slide down the road that RCA took, and that IBM started down.

RCA is no longer a leader in any field.

Microsoft was a player in all of this once, but they shifted their emphasis to corporate geed. Now the so called “improvements” they put forth are something other people had before and the offerings are clumsy, awkward, and to invasive.

Perhaps, given the shift in thinking in today’s world of a greater sensitivity, Microsoft is truly something that has a micro view of things with no true softness to it.

Perhaps, there is just about NOTHING, that Microsoft is offing that anyone really wants.

Perhaps there is not a need, as there has not been for years, for the product Microsoft has been offering at the inflated prices they are charging.

It is sad to see that Yahoo will be destroyed by them also. I will start looking for another email client and another search engine. I know it will not be long before Microsoft has destroyed both and ruined the great reputation that Yahoo has built up.

It is a good thing I do not own any more yahoo stocks, I would hate to see the drop they will most probably take within the next 200 weeks.

I have it on good authority that Google plans to respond to the Yahoo/MSFT alliance by acquiring the world’s largest podcasting network, Wizzard Software Corp. (WZE:AMEX). Chris Spencer has already express an interest in being acquired in a recent Pittsburgh Post-Gazette article. The podcasting market and advertising within it is exploding. As a Yahoo! shareholder, I suggest we put an acquisition pacakge together before they complete theirs.

also, the internet is already too big for one search engine to truly go around, everybody knows there are tons of sites with good traffic relatively and bing, google or yahoo can not be efficient enough to handle that. But, regions of the internet can be searched better and i think on yahoo profiles searching regions, socially or site wise is the key

Hopefully, yahoo will gain advertising dollars with this deal, but I think yahoo search and its development teams should not be fired or taken away but redirected in making social searching more efficient especially concerning yahoo updates. and the yql and pipes need more help, redirect the teams to aid in those enterprises
