yahoo power is eyeballs. because it has 'premium content'? HELL NO! front page PVs skyrocket when it redirected the email logout to it... so that proves NOBODY goes to the frontpage for 'premium content' people go to yahoo for the assorted free stuff(tm). does it's email need to be the best one? no, but it's ok and free. and you already see lots of @yahoo around, so why not? Will people still use flickr even if it lacks 'social networking' features and ugly themes? quite probably. Should they ditch flickr and 'focus' on display advertising and 'premium content'? hell no. Does babel fish needs to be better than a paid translator? hardly. but it still kicks google translator butt. sadly nobody that arrives to yahoo now will even know it exists. Bottom line is: everyone has found memories of yahoo. But for some it was geocities, for some it was their first email... for others it was the way to find pages. heck it may even be because of the cool TV ads! yahoo should be monetizing this by inventing clever ways to put Ads on those in a manner that isn't offensive. But no, disregard all that. let's steer yahoo into AOL foot steps. Everyone wants to read about hollywood stars and wacky red neck oddities while a 'hit the monkey' flashing ad fights for their attention.
