Yahoo! is still relevant

Yahoo! is fighting a good fight against Google and Microsoft, unwilling to accept that either of those giants will eventually render Yahoo! obsolete ( which will be a bad thing, for competition is such a wonderful concept ). They are getting better by the day, adding new services, improving old ones.. they seem to lack the technology and coolness Google has, the might and financial strength of Microsoft, yet they are putting all their effort in deploying new content sections and improving the services for their users -- which is I guess they only thing left for them to do. Their latest service, Yahoo! foods is quite great. I love the content, the UI, the ideas. Very tasty.

Speaking of Google, they are going to surpass UK's Channel Four advertising revenue as far as their operations in the UK are concerned. Lots of quid for the Google boys.

Filling the Lik-Sang Void : Now that Lik Sang is no more, thanks to the efforts of Sony ( may they burn flames ), gamers will have to look for another company to provide them with important gaming goodies.

Favorite Quotations

  • Focused, hard work is the real key to success. Keep your eyes on the goal, and just keep taking the next step towards completing it. If you aren't sure which way to do something, do it both ways and see which works best.
  • Focus is a matter of deciding what things you are not going to do.
  • Simple is Beautiful
  • In the information age, the barriers [to entry into programming] just aren't there. The barriers are self imposed. If you want to set off and go develop some grand new thing, you don't need millions of dollars of capitalization. You need enough pizza and Diet Coke to stick in your refrigerator, a cheap PC to work on, and the dedication to go through with it. We slept on floors. We waded across rivers.
  • Fear is the path to the Dark Side. Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering.
  • Easy is what I know, difficult is what I don't.
