On a serious note. I can't imagine sinking time into any new service Yahoo! comes out with. I'm not a Yahoo! hater by any means but they've done nothing in the last 3 years to assure me that they won't just shut this down.
- coderdude 15y agoI posted this on TC's comments but that's next to pointless, so here: Yahoo won't give up YSB. It's one of the few things they make a killing on. Aside from the monthly fees they charge their hundreds of thousands of customers, they also get a percentage of each sale on every store they host.
- jmathai 15y agoYou fail to understand how much the entire company is in jeopardy. They've lost or are in the process of losing their foothold in every sector they once were the leader (not uncommon for web companies). I'd be surprised if the killing their making is growing or rather stagnating. Regardless, they're shrinking at a rate which means they'll be chopped up and sold in pieces. At which point I still believe my original comment rings true. I used to work there and am sad to see an Internet icon fade but you can't change the facts.
