So Bill, why should HOMS be any different? Isn't advertising a cyclical 'thing'? I'll tell you this, the magazines I subscribe to, are now not as thick as they used to be. >The crash of the advertising market has hit Yahoo hard, and the company's restructuring plan will result in layoffs. news.cnet.com

question about it. I listened to the call, and they are tap dancing around the advertising shortfall. It was flabergasting, and they fell all over themselves not to address the question. There's something very rotten there, IMO. Leaving their specific problems aside, do you still see the net as a good medium for advertising although not in the current environnment? Thes pop-up windows are annoying although they do get one's attention. It seems the possible interaction with an advertisement can make this medium stronger. I am sure "stronger" is not the correct word but I am sure you know what I mean. I would listen to the conference call but I have no position nor a good understanding of the firm.
