Financial pundits are also saying that Yahoo has little choice but to accept and that the deal will likely go through. Anything that will be viable competition for Google will be a good thing in my view. Yahoo already sends a ton of traffic to these forums so despite the widely-held view that there is only one search engine, Google, there really are people that do use Yahoo now. Increasing the number of Yahoo's users can only help keep Google from dictating how we build our websites an how we link to others. _________________________ For the non-do-it-yourselfer!
