      We must be getting close to some kind of a bottom. Everyone is Neg and everyone is talking about the big drawn out bear.

      Could it be the age profile of peopl writing these stories is such that this would be a nightmare?

    • Why eBay Needs Shipping Cap [view article]
      Guys it is about customer trust.

      Lots of people are turned off by the tricks and BS that goes on all over Ebay.

      Hidden refurbs grey market goods, Shipping charges , fakes. And until now the good old NEG for a NEG rating scheme.

      Ebay was getting nasty ugly and not worth the effort. By cleaning it up they might be able to get the buyers back.

    • Google's Deadly Flirtation With Yahoo! [view article]
      Yang kills Yahoo, and MSFT gets to be number two. And being number two in search is vastly better than being number three.


      Shame that Yang was so filled with bitterness he hurt shareholders , employees and Yahoo, just over his distaste for steve and bill.       Oct 07 12:24 PM

      DOES ANYONE proof read?? ANYONE???????


      you have excluded MSFT from comment and charts at the top of the story?
      MSFT gets pushed down to "among the findings"

      It is clear whoever wrote this just wanted to talk about Yhoo and goog , AOL and MSFT just get in the way of the story.

      Why not go the whole hog and just exclude anything that is not based in the valley.

      what a load of old bollocks

      GOOG is most likely flexing muscle.
      They have the search market all tied up and are looking crush Yahoo next.

      Calling Yahoo a Web 1.0 company to support your view is rubbish.
      Enough of this web 2.0 BS. Companies should not be placed in such silly little boxes.

    • Running the Numbers: Google Looks Like a Buy [view article]
      yes GOOG is a one trick pony.

      But it is a very fine trick. And unlike the dot boom era, Goog is making real cash really fast and seems to be doing very well.
      The moat is not as huge as many make out, but we are getting into dept of justices backyard. And may very well find that goog is forced to "open" its methods ranking and goog may face price caps in some parts of the world. price control is not unheard of where single of groups of noncompeteing companies control a market.
      example power, transport, health.

    • The Google Phone: Blockbuster or Bust? [view article]


      Hopefully the phone companies will be smart enought to understand that they will be commodities if they allow GOOG to gain a foothold.

      If Google gets is phone OS running a lot of phones where will that leave NOK Iphone ATT Verizon?
      Perhaps it will leave them selling airtime and tech only. Will brands grossly debased and hidden underneath a goog OS and range of "Skins". With goog pulling all the profit from ads, and the phone companies left scratching thier heads and wondering how they can compete with free phone calls for viewing and clicking through. Perhaps oops I will stop there, I just thought of a new model for phone companies.....


      Keeping the interface is core to keeping customers , otherwise you are just selling access.

      In a nutshell Goog wants wants to be the Windows of phones.       Sep 23 12:55 PM
    • The Google Phone: It's Not Just About Google [view article]
      When HTC works with MSFT everyone calls HTC a bit player joke.

      TA DA bring goog and now HTC turns into prince charming.


      yet another pump goog , when all I see is a great search company that has consistantly failed in every market outside of search.
      GOOG is looking more and more like MSFT everyday.

    • Three New Microsoft Commercials Making PCs Cool(er) [view article]


      Apple is an image concerned wannabe system , that while it performs well in its playground is not able to compete outside that arena. In the big bad world MSFT provides the systems the tools and the products people want and or just need.

      The ads address this well by simply showing that the PC "IS" everywhere, MS is the company that people turn to when they want to do cool stuff. Apple is for when you just want to try and look cool.       Sep 19 07:15 PM
    • E.U. Probing the Yahoo/Google Ad Deal [view article]
      Me thinks we may already be to late. For me I just dont click google ads. Simple as that, they have far too much power already, the last thing we need is MSFT 2.0.

    • Microsoft's Seinfeld Campaign: Will It Play Outside of Peoria? [view article]
      Chris B, I heard your mom calling you to come in for dinner.

      MSFT does have some work to do outside the USA / EU. Fraud has and continues to be pretty good for MSFT. For one thing without it Opensource would do much better. It trains in millions of people to the Microsoft way. While it does reduce income per copy being used I believe it may increase to amount of units sold by continuing to entrench the MSFT position.

      Worldwide the money might be better spent lobbying and developing relationships.       Sep 15 04:49 PM
