Once again we have a significant update of the Yahoo search engine, formally announced by them and 3 days later we are up to 8 posts on this occurrence. A grand total of 8 people actually gave enough of a rat’s ass to post about this.

I’m not looking to flame, I really, really want Yahoo to succeed as the Google monopoly is not a good thing for all us, (and I got some stock!) so I’m rooting for you guys. But come on, this is it? This update is the best you have?

I’m an eternal optimist, and not one to ever throw in the towel, but I’m just about to the point of saying when it comes to search; it’s game over. We got Google, we got Yahoo and we got MSN.

If there is a Yahoo representative who happens to stumble across this post; let’s get some dialogue going here; post! Ask for feed back, get some response. You must make some significant changes. If you don’t want to be absorbed by MSN , I am all for that, but man it’s the bottom of the ninth, two outs and two strikes and boy you could really use a hit.

I guess at the end of the day, I just don’t get the plan, I don’t see how this update, or for that matter, the last dozen are going to do anything, even remotely to close the gap.
