Finally: I wonder how long it will be before one of the tracking companies comes up with a study of "How long does a user stay on a site?".
I routinely hop in and out of search sites and all the other YHOO destinations. So I never have a chance to look at the ads there since I am much more goal directed.
When I am at SI, or msnbc or cnn.com or even thestreet.com : I spend a good chunk of time there. Similarly : when I am at hotmail.com, I may spend 5 minutes in front of a single screen.
This gives much more time to notice an Advertisement.

On the flip side though, if search engines were clever, they could assign cookies and develop a profile of what I look for based on what I search for ...

<< Sort of like your psychedelic profile? >>

Some things are worth the wait.

<< Could it be that joint venture I heard something about between the two biggest market cap companies around? >>

I'll tell you something Mr. Buschman. I live not more than 10-15 minutes away from Bill Gates and I don't get any MSNBC. The only thing from MSNBC I see is a glimpse in the morning from CNBC. If they're are going to be such a great competitor to YHOO let's just check out their website. What's the URL?

<< Craig doesn't like MSN, MSNBC or MS Investor, so we can go ahead and write them off as potential competition >>

MSN sucked so I cancelled their ISP service. MSNBC I don't even get even though I can walk to Microsoft's campus. You would think that people living in the same city as Microsoft would get MSNBC on their cable. Maybe it's some premium channel that I don't get. MS investor takes too long to load and I don't like the fonts like the gentleman in the prior post just said.

<< We should all have a chemically induced "experience", buy some Yahoo, and relax. >>

Your catching on. Jimi's speaking to you R.D.

He's saying:

"nine-ty miles an hour, girl, is the... speed YHOO drives, you tell me it's all right, you don't mind a little pain, you say you just want YHOO to take you for a riiiiiide. Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo...Cross-town traf-fic (so hard to get through to you) Cross-town traffic, (I don't need to run over you), Cross-town traf-fic (all you do is slow me down) And I'm tryin' to get on the oth-er side of town.

Take on ride crosstown on the YHOO express Mr. Buschman...
