yahoo wont give up that easily...they are making good money so they can do anything as of now i think yahoo search will stay coz many people still using it especially in asia.
Yahoo is a great search engine I think and is now part of every day life and it will not ever disappear but with Google grasping 70 - 75 percent of the search engine market worldwide Yahoo really needs to reconsider their plans to remain a favourite on our bookmarks. Personally I stopped using Yahoo ages ago because I find that Google and MSN messenger are just enough and 3 is a crowd as they say. Yahoo’s directory is difficult to navigate like Dmoz, I have spent lots valuable time looking for a specific category in the Yahoo directory to submit some sites for my mates and would prefer if this procedure was simplified in someway, like type in a keyword and it finds the category; But no, Instead I have to sit there and be a geek for an hour or so, drill into the directory like I’m a computer programmer or something. Yahoo needs to start spending a bit more and advancing with the web site’s technology, give the directory some life for god sake. If I cant find anything within 5 clicks in any directory, I’m out!
I don't think it will ever happen. Why would they use google for their search engine? There's no point.
the best things are are going on with Yahoo are soon to come... They have been number one before and they will be again... Google cant hold the number one spot too much longer.. People will get tired of them. They are too large, and just like Microsoft people will turn on them... what do you think?
