Shorts will win...

I imagine most of us are blind to one degree or another. No one here has perfect information. Yes, half of success comes from marketing and has nothing to do with the product. Companies dress themselves just as political leaders do, as do you and I. It's part of the game, it's not right, but it's reality. I honestly don't know what to make of the page views, but I do know this about YHOO: They are riding the extreme edge of technology and business. They are evolving every single day, growing their biz and attacking each new market segment that looks promising (advertising, ecommerce, and now broadcasting - soon music I'd guess).

Do you know why CISC processors are the dominant cpu in PCs today? Is it because they have a superior architecture? Na... Good money was spent on marketing. I suspect Koogle is a fantastic marketer. Couple that with an ok product, and you will do well. Just ask Intel and Microsoft. I don't know about you, but I'd much rather have a SUNW spark running UNIX on my desk. Marketing and ok products puts this piece on my desk instead.

Get over it. Make money. Go with winners.
