Google vs. Yahoo!
Yahoo! was once my favorite search engine. About three years ago I switched to Google, since after all Yahoo! was piggy backing off of Goolge anyway. Yahoo! just turned 10 years old but Google's stock is hovering around $180, so deciding which of the search giants is better off is a toss up.
While reading what is sure to be uninteresting to you, I came across this quote:
In short, while Google was busy becoming what Yahoo! used to be, Yahoo! has become what AOL should have been.
I own stock in AOL-Time Warner and have watched the price sag. I also passed up buying Yahoo! stock when it was under $10 thinking google was going to stamp Yahoo! into the ground.
Well as it turns out I use both Google and Yahoo!, but for different things. I use Google for searching, email, and Blogging. I use Yahoo! for stock quotes, movie times, maps, and apartment searching. But there is one thing that is more important than all of these services: searching for "Ian MacAllen". Yahoo! puts me in the top two spots, but Google beats that putting me in the top three. So Google it is.
