Banner advertising does NOT work.

What a statement! As if you'll never look at a banner ad, let alone click on one. And what's the click-through rate on TV ads again?

I expect the Yahoo of tomorrow (OK, next year and more likely the coming five and ten years) will derive revenues on a % basis less and less from advertising. Maybe that's already happening.

I added shares of YHOO today.

Doug, do you invest for the long term in any Internet companies? Or related technology companies?
