gamiziuk,

I'm absolutely agree with you that yahoo need to add more countries to help it get more international share. If they don't expand then they ultimately give up the big market to its competitors without a single fight. It is definitely not a good way while google, msn, ask ... snacking up advertisers and publishers just because yahoo decide to stay out of the game. If it continue that way, yahoo will lose more share and their competitors will eventually grow bigger and it could be too late for yahoo.

From what I see now, there is no time for slowly roll out and testing any more. Yes. There was a time when it was nessisary to do that and yahoo has plenty of time to fine tune it products but that time has gone. (3 years ago yahoo can afford to do that.) Right now is urgent and yahoo should understand that.

garyr_h, you definitely right that yahoo services need better integration. They are too fragmented and there are no interconnection. It need to improve its products in order to compete with social network sites since these sites are better in integration and communication. Yahoo need to reborn itself to help it capture the market share away from social sites.

According to the recent report, the online advertising market is growing at the rate of over 30 percent. Google, ... and other competitors are growing. If yahoo is not growing, there are some problems. If it is shrinking, it is serious.

Yahoo needs to face it before it can moving forward. If they do that, they still have chance.
