>> I hope to hear responses from many of you on this silent event, which I think is very significant for the direction yahoo seems to have taken here. My opinion is probably not representative. But how many years will it take Yahoo to recover the 5.7 billion it paid for bcst ? My answer is not in the next 10 years. Go further. How many years will it take to recoup the $5 B paid for GeoCities. My answer is probably never. Is there a connection to the steep drop in yhoo since bcst ? I think very much so. Here is a question for you. Have you spent a penny on anything because you heard its ad on bcst ? Do you even remember an ad you heard on bcst ?
