a) pre-CES (the floor wasn't open yet, not much to look at online - now its hard just catching up).



b) hell, its Microsoft and Gates - the "main" keynote.



"nobody really cares about Yahoo" - are you kidding, not only are they very, very popular - they are also supporting the Web 2.0 movement by acquiring edgy companies like flickr and del.icio.us. Also, they are on the forefront of emerging technology evident by their integration of AJAX and other new platforms into their betas (next.yahoo.com) and offering API's so developers can write hooks into their offerings.



Some of you trolls are a bunch of clowns... now someone hook me with a live feed!

Yahoo's figures would look a whole lot humbler if the millions upon millions of bot-created accounts and duplicate accounts were removed.



They were also far from the first on the things you mention, and other than their messenger (which is fairly good, if bloated) they're also far from the best at any of them.]]>Jan 6th 2006 1:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/06/live-from-yahoos-keynote/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/06/live-from-yahoos-keynote/

Nice to see Yahoo use it..should of guess so when they made Apple widgets...]]>Jan 6th 2006 1:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/06/live-from-yahoos-keynote/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/06/live-from-yahoos-keynote/Jan 6th 2006 1:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/06/live-from-yahoos-keynote/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/06/live-from-yahoos-keynote/


Second, I never said Yahoo was first on any of the aforementioned services; I simply said Google was further from first (by a long shot). I'm also not saying that being earlier to a market makes you any better, though I believe Yahoo's new mail, maps, and messenger offerings are as good or better than others out there. Now, would Yahoo have improved their products without the pressure from Google? Maybe not, and it's that competitive pressure that I think Google should be getting the most credit for, not being some wildly innovative technology company. ]]>Jan 6th 2006 1:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/06/live-from-yahoos-keynote/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/06/live-from-yahoos-keynote/

Just imagine the nightmare it would give Redmond if Yahoo and Google were to merge... I can't see the Justice Dept. doing anything to stop it, but I'm sure the European Commission would have a fit over it considering how paranoid they are about Google and the digital library project of theirs.

LOL is that a common theme in these Keynotes? I've noticed that there have been a couple of them that have had cheap laughs at MS's expense :)
