I disagree with the author on his assessment about Yahoo. Yahoo has no debt and if you log onto their site you would still see a steaming crowd of blogs, answers to posted questions, advertisers alike.

In other words, the old rule of thumb is the traffic -- the party is still on. Check onto Aol. Over there advertisements are scanty, the financial site is till "Beta" and had been "Beta" for months, if not years. AOL's barn door been open and the best brains been gone for years.

And what is this Crap that Microsoft is the White Knight of sorts? In my view, and come back in a couple of years to prove that I am wrong, Microsoft is already a "Yesterday's Company". Recall AOL was a $250B company a few years ago? Look at Microsoft's equity market value today, $200B+, right? It has the same look and feel as a Christmas turkey ready to be carved down.

Sorry for being heuristic. I am not scholar and academician. I left the articulation and polishing to them.
