What’s my problem with the Yahoo! / ABC partnership?

It’s fairly simple: Yahoo! has forgotten the user and can only see increased distribution, bigger captive audience and more advertising dollars. So instead of focusing on solving people’s real problems - which I’d argue we did back in the good old days at Yahoo! - the company is now solely focusing on size, growth and money.

Its’ business as usual for the ego-driven, fame overreaching and narcissistic MBAs that are now running the company. It’s seagull management at it’s best - fly in, crap and get the hell out before it starts to stink.

And I’m off to Twitter and my RSS feeds to get my news. Bye-bye, Yahoo!.
