Well - the advertisers (popups/links) surely pay the Yahoo Empire some pretty good bucks to advertise. So, if Yahoo succeeds in running off the loyal users/groups (on which the advertising blinks incessantly), then the advertisers will eventually depart (?). If Yahooties is indeed trying to "destroy itself by running us off", wouldn't it be better to do it not gradually - not with a whimper - but as a BIG BANG - just stop operating? We may not know it yet, (after depending on the availability and usability of YAHOO "classic" for so long) -
but there "really is life after Yahoo". I've enjoyed 'owning/operating' 3 groups and being member of about 22 others - but it is rapidly becoming less enjoyable -- which seems to be Yahoo's goal.
Of course, the comment that we should "work around it"..."be adaptable to change" sounds more and more like the sci-fi novels written so long ago and sci-fact of them now catching up with us.
