MSN AdCenter results are supposedly very dissapointing, therefore the stick to Yahoo! Search Marketing for the remainder of the European countries.

I think Yahoo need the following: 1) A new visual identity - losing the exclamation mark will probably help. 2) Some smart hiring in product engineering, marketing / branding area, and product integration and design to integrate products, make them work together and look cohesive. 3) It probably needs to lose about 2,200 employees and gain one new CEO (and get some new blood in the boardroom in other roles too) before one can expect the share price move in a significant upwards direction. 4) It needs a 'must-use' or must-have' application, and a whole boatload of new customers. If I were Yahoo, I'd buy Plaxo - and yesterday, because that will give them both hundreds of thousands of address books (aka social graphs), and give them a great application to let people glue together their activity and contacts across different social media when Plaxo Pulse leaves beta. 5) Pay me to help them get this sorted this year. ;-) Regards, David I agree with a lot of what you say there, Boris.
