With Yahoo trying to dominate over Google's domination, its becoming pretty useless for users.

I mean, god, where can I not see Ink results? Its on ATW, MSN, Hotbot, Yahoo Search, and soon will be on AltaVista.

Does Yahoo! ever think what goes through a users mind?
I mean, before when there was ATW, users had one more avenue to search on, one more advanced engine, one more close-to-google competent, but now, who would want to search in ATW when you can see the same results in Yahoo?

This was really a bad move for Yahoo! to do IMHO, if I owned so many search engines, I'd keep them, you know why? Because if the user (for example) does not like AV, he/she will search in ATW, both owned by the same company, so no matter which SE he/she chooses, it will benefit only Yahoo.

But, if a user does not like the current Yahoo! results, why would he want to search in ATW when it gives the same results?

Pathetic.
