Hi All! I had a sudden inspiration as to how YHOO could increase
their sales enough to start making enough money to justify their
stock price. A newbie to this thread, I hope I'm not just wasting
bandwidth. :)

The basic problem is that the Yahoo commercials are too short.
I use their links for stock news, (though I prefer the logarithmic
stock charts on WallStreetCity) and sometimes searches, but
I never look at the advertising. Obviously, this doesn't work.
On the other hand, advertising on TV works because they
stop the show for 30 seconds, and you got to watch it. So
all YHOO has to do is make their advertising full screen, and
make the user look at it for 30 seconds at a time. They'll make
mints of money!
