Huh ? Um, I guess I don't get the wooden spoon thing. Maybe Steve can explain to me ,

Im glad that Yahoo did not sell out to Microsoft.
I like it and it is good to have the competition.
Why doesn't Microsoft just try to improve their product, put some money and work into improving MSN instead of trying to buy them out.

Wooden spoons are normally used for stirring - Usually stirring up trouble or controversy.

I'm more of a google user, but two wrongs don't make a right...

I believe Yahoo can do better with out Microsoft's clout... I don't mind Microsoft but many people hate them and are leery of their intentions...

So.. better of by themselves...

Who put Google there?

Has Adobes assimilation of Macromedia been a good thing?
Has Corels assimilation of JASC and Ulead been a good thing?
