    '404 Error Page can not be found ' - lol

    I think they will just change thier business, they already have started and i think they are less of a search engine these days.

    I have hope that it will be "positive turnaround and bigger search engine".
    Bring changes forward with a new team onboard and many things are possible.

    Their search results will be bought/sold to another company, and all of the other content will continue its small, uninspired existence.

    yahoo search is a bit a crap. I started to realize msn is a bit better than yahoo search. microsoft constantly improved their search algorithm and site indexing, yahoo just stay still for years
