Bigger and growing faster than ESPN Sportzone, than Time-Warner-Turner's huge site (including CNN) pathfinder.com, than abcnews.com, netscape.com, disney.com, msn.com, aol.com, globe.com (the biggest newspaper site)... anyone
I have my.yahoo.com as my home page, and I love it. But i am not married to yahoo, if something better comes along I will switch in an instant. my.excite.com is fairly comparable, and the competition will only heat up.
To me yahoo is the equivalent of TV Guide, a necessary part of the Internet but not the ultimate destination. Would love to own the stock, but not at these prices. i find it ludicrous to read these posts that Yahoo is worth a $3 billion market cap because it is some magical portal to the Internet that will fill in (like some teenager buying clothes) in 5 years.
Ask yourself this question : if Yahoo disappeared today, would anyone really notice? Oracle, Sun, Microsoft, et al would be sorely missed, I can't say the same for Yahoo. |
