"Then Andreesen went to AOL and the same thing is
happening, no vision in the content area, yahoo pulling ahead."

Michelle, no offense, but you're dead wrong here.
1. Andreesen plays no role in that area, and never did. He WAS CTO for AOL.
2. YHOO isn't pulling ahead, in fact the reason AOL is consider a "hold" now as opposed to a "buy" is because of broadband...not content. In fact, their content is considered to be EXCELLENT, and is considered very sticky versus its competition.

Re: AOL "no vision in the content area, yahoo pulling ahead."

Michelle:

I am no fan of AOL, but I think your accusations are a bit overreaching & unsubstantiated. I think many will disagree with you that AOL is deficient in vision when it comes to content. Content is one area that AOL has excelled. They have been able to capture the new-entrant market to the Internet with their content & not just their interface.
