Yahooligans Losing Ground

April 28, 2009

Short honk: A small item in Barron’s caught my attention. The article “What’s Up with Yahoo?” here notices a softening of Yahoo’s already mushy shares. Eric Savitz points out the drop in values. The real action in the post appears in the comments here. One item in particular caught my attention; to wit:

Look at their traffic patterns 40% of traffic is derived from the sub-domain mail.yahoo.com, and Bartz is cutting all their other services. Yahoo is becoming nothing more than the largest free email provider in the world, and that reality is starting to come up over and over in analysts discussions of the company.

Not a peep about search. Think it’s marginalized?
