Cheers.

Google draws on more users for shorter visits, while Yahoo draws less users, but for longer. And obviously Google makes more money. On the otherhand you point is valid.

It's been at least 10 years that Yahoo has been shifting its main business from search to content provider. Truthfully I've been a huge fan of Yahoo since they added their mini-sites such as: http://hotzone.yahoo.com/ http://adventures.yahoo.com/ I see it as that they are taking the personal story/connection aspect of what makes blogging so great, and applying it to telling the news, or talking about travel etc. But back to my point, Yahoo and Google are misleading to compare, Yahoo makes alot of content, Google makes none.
