      Why Yahoo! Isn’t Worth Anything To Management and Investors
      Majority of the guys left/leaving were good for nothing. If you criticize every move that yahoo makes, to turn itself around, you are simply writing to create a anti-yahoo sentiment. Fortunately, those heady days are gone where a few writers/newspapers influenced shareholders (remember the year 2000). Soon blog writers will also bite the dust because they simply write their opinions not informed analysis. most bloggers like the one above have never even talked to any company execs or read SEC filings.....

      Yahoo!'s Brain Drain Hurts Chances for a Turnaround
      Yahoo is having a major reorg and useless people are let go. Of course, there will be some good people leaving in the process because their own ambitions of becoming CEO/CTO were turned off. The main thing is such job insecurity will make people accountable at last.

      Does Yahoo Have an Apple-ish Turnaround Ahead of It?
      Icahn knows about retention plans but his followers do not. They are sheep (mass psychology) and therefore believe whatever he says. May be too busy or lazy even to read up. He says whatever makes them believe Yhoo did a bad job by not selling itself. It is so sad that we think educated people make good decisions...

      Analyzing Four Futures for Yahoo
      No basis! Just using present value formula doesn't say anything about a company's past or future. That's like checking weather for next year! This is why we have stock market crashes! At best you can say, these may be the scenarios (which all of us know)

      Ballmer to Yahoo: Feudalism Is Dead
      If my vacant land behind your house (with no backyard) adds a backyard to your home, I will simply ask for higher than market price because of the value it would bring to your house. I don't know why these bloggers think Jerry Yang is making the decision. If it is true why would they spend millions on hiring prestigious M&A advisers? Bloggers seem to think they qualify to judge a company from its last year's balance sheet. I hope this decade would be a blog-bust that would lead to more accountable reports.

      Yahoo!, Microsoft: Edging Closer to a Deal?
      The same article was posted earlier with the title suggesting Microsoft will buy Yahoo for 31 and no more! I meant to comment how the author came to that conclusion if 12 analysts thought MSFT would up its bid and 12 analysts thought it would be $31! This hype is just to get page views.

      Microsoft Should Drop Yahoo Bid by a Buck
      Yahoo talent is already leaving by the droves is not true now but it will be if MSFT makes a lower bid. Then MSFT will get exactly what it pays for: lazy, unmotivated bunch of engineers who have no clue about what's going on! remember, you always get what you pay for. Silicon Valley has plenty of companies looking for bright people whereas Redmond, doesn't!

      I don't know why every talkhead thinks microsoft will do yahoo better. Microsoft already has properties that yahoo has plus enormous cash. Yet they haven't been able to catch up. So, how in the world they can help yahoo stand up against google minus yahoo talent?

      What's Yahoo's Game Plan?
      Just because Yahoo hasn't made its plans/talks public that doesn't mean it doesn't have any. But all reporters pretend to be "know-alls" and predict yahoo's fate depending on what they "know". Check the last paragraph that implies yahoo's stock fell because it didn't take up the offer! We know that google. MSFT and most technology stocks and the dow itself has gone down due to economic situation since microsoft made the bid.

      Yahoo's Yang Sticks It to Shareholders and Employees
      It seems Todd is new to M&A. Severance plan is standard practice. It is just to keep employees from fleeing. Microsoft doesn't lose a dime if it treats the employees as they are! Employees and execs can not make this money unless their jobs are cut or they are demoted. In fact, Microsoft's retention package would have spent a larger amount of money any way to make people stay. Yang has done the work fro Microsoft, albeit, cheaply.
