White shoes, there are plenty of links to Yahoo and it has a big following. But there's no reason that couldn't change. I access Yahoo all the time because I have it bookmarked and it is a good site. Thats different from something like cable where there are a limited number of channels or a local newspaper where one has to buy it in order to get local news. There's no reason whatsoever for people to have to use Yahoo!, but many do currently because its a good site and its touted heavily. That could easily change for better or worse as the internet evolves, as bandwidth increases and/or if online communities arise.
