<<Yahoo is the biggest player. Yahoo has the largest franchise in Cyberspace. Yahoo has more users than anyone including AOL, and Yahoo is adding users faster than anyone.>> William: any one of these statements could be interpreted as true./ However, would that be a useful interpretation? 1-Yahoo is the biggest player. What exactly does this measure and who is YHOO compared to? 2-Yahoo has the largest franchise in Cyberspace. What does this mean??? 3-Yahoo has more users than anyone including AOL. I'd be more careful in defining "users" here. It's like saying the Moon is like the Sun because it shines and is also bigger than the Sun, because it looks so.. :-) 4-Yahoo is adding users faster than anyone. Once again, the utilization of "users" is misleading... PS Someone just unloaded a large chunk (before lunch EST)
