La société Yahoo! http://www.yahoo.com/ insiste sur le fait qu’elle n’essaie pas d’entrer en concurrence avec Google Book Search .

However, as a content creator, I understand the concerns expressed by organizations and authors that are worried about losing control of their copyrighted material. In some ways, I want to tell them to get on the bus and realize that the searches will probably not hurt their book sales and might even help new customers to find them, but I also think that Google should make some financial agreements before simply exposing the content.

It is great that Yahoo and friends are trying to come up with a method that both satisfies customers and providers, but so far, I will stick with Google Book Search and hope that it just keeps getting better.

One of my goals with this blog is to help people to understand that the energy debates are not just a discussion about technology - it is also a very important financial “game”. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to tell which “team” many of the p…

Aside from a lame online spreadsheet Google’s done nothing in the way of competition with M$. Instead they’ve tried to enter every product space Yahoo has, and with sucky and/or unpopular results so far. Aside from their search advertising and maybe maps there’s not a single product of Google’s that is more popular than the equivalent Yahoo one.

As for the library battle, all’s fair once your competitor is a major biter.

“yahoo will be gone in six months - with a weasly enough managment team - something they surely possess - they might last 12 months. in the arena of totalitarian organizations - that is, corporations - google has a strong and willing tri-dictatorship.”

Thats a pretty ridiculous statement. Yahoo! and Google are two very different companies, that find common ground on Search and Marketing (selling). Yahoo! is a social media company, that actually outgrew Google in search traffic last year (http://googlewatch.eweek.com/blogs/google_watch/archive/2006/11/20/14741.aspx)
.

At the core of Yahoo’s problem, is a very bad technology for monetizing their traffic (both search and other). Hopefully, this will change very soon. In January Panama will be fully implemented and be used by everyone.

sure, Russia was once a world power, but they’d been declining in power for decades when the Wall finally came down. the only reason any kind of ‘cold war’ mythology persisted for so long unchallenged was because the punditocracy saw fit to play their role correctly - that is, to not challenge conventional wisdom, to support the owners of our society.

further, Yahoo and Google are now more than ever, apples and oranges. Yahoo is a content company (at best). Google is a technology company.

yahoo will be gone in six months - with a weasly enough managment team - something they surely possess - they might last 12 months. in the arena of totalitarian organizations - that is, corporations - google has a strong and willing tri-dictatorship.

these companies are not comparable. there is no ’saga’ to be spoken of between them. the saga of a pathetic media company once the darling of the internet, though? si.
