If Yahoo is any history, it'll stay that way until it dies for not expanding to the rest of the world.

I'm not entirely convinced YPN's death was due to not expanding outside the US. In fact there's every reason not to expand outside the US for a US company doing a beta test.

The 4 year length of this so-called beta test was a bit extreme, granted, but the reasoning was clear. At least it was to me.
