Responding to the post about "Will Yahoo! be broken up?"...

I saw a talk by Jerry Yang saying that Yahoo! secretly also stands for "You
Always Have Other Options." The nice thing about the web is that consumers
always have choice.

Yahoo! is clearly powerful, but they've reached where they are by focusing
on how to make visitors happy. If they stopped doing that, they would stop
growing.
