The mother of all search engines.

Why is this new title change? I guess it used to be 'cornerstone of net' or something liek that?

Don't you think it's appropriate, given all the recent "spawns" - Overture, Fast, Altavista, Inktomi?

Hmm.. I would think combo of all search engines... definitely not "mother"

Oh puh-leeeeze. Yahoo's bought up some good potential, that's ture. Maybe someday everyone will just yodel a sweet tune on how grand it has become, but today isn't
that day, at least not so far as I can tell.

As it sits today, Yahoo remains a far too ad-messy, ad-busy portal that relies on a slightly filtered Google for its serps. And that ain't my mamma, no how, no way.

hmm..whoever came up with this one, must have one helluva imagination ;)

Well, they ushered in the entire modern web era with a little search engine called the Yahoo Directory. If not for Yahoo, we may still be in the web dark ages.

Ya, I call that the mother of all search engines.
