I would buy Geocities and then shut it down a few years later. I would start charging for my free dating/personals site. Then I would eventually shut that down too as people find other alternatives. I would make sure that my instant messaging network is closed to outside clients and that alternative clients have to reverse engineer the the network protocol. I would make sure my search engine is just slightly better than Lycos and ignore the success of Google. After all, Google is just a fad. Ok, seriously, pretty much they need to stop pushing people away. Open up APIs. Don't get rid of the old mail interface. It works fine. Continue to offer choices. Don't touch the finance site. Don't touch Flickr. Don't censor Flickr. Fight spam in yahoo groups. Offer IMAP/POP3 free.
