Ironically, switching to the .com domain was one of the few sensible decisions they made in later years. I could never remember where the first dot went in the .us one.

You really have to wonder what's up with Yahoo that they essentially destroy everything they buy. Certainly there are horror stories about Google, Amazon, Facebook, etc. buying stuff and wrecking it, but they also have success stories. It seems that crash-and-burn is the norm for Yahoo (also Oracle). There are probably some management lessons to be learned by studying what's different about the acquisition strategies of these companies.
