What I was saying is that most Yahoo! has a light layout search feature. What I meant was that Yahoo!'s search engine is really only going to be used or useful for people who are already on Yahoo!, I mean, if your homepage is your custom my.yahoo.com page, are you going to go to google every time you want to search something? I'm aware that the average/.'er might (although that raises the question of what a/.'er is doing with my.yahoo as his homepage...), but Joe Schmoe or my Grandma doesn't care if Google might yeild better results, she wants to find her Apple Pie recipe using the search engine that she's already looking at.
Google by far beat Yahoo the first time, because Google has a simple interface,
While I agree with everything you said, I disagree with this:
For people just interesting in searching with Yahoo! (for whatever odd-ass reason they have...), can use http://search.yahoo.com/
The fact of the matter is, most people just don't use Yahoo! for searching, they use it for whatever other banal crap they use Yahoo! for, the search feature just makes it so they don't have to move their mouse ALL THE WAY up to the address bar and type in google.com
As for a google replacement, AllTheWeb was a nice suppliment, but never really a replacement...Teoma.com is looking better every time I use it, and I think has been mentioned here before.
That doesn't even make sense. I don't know where you shop, but vinyl isn't much cheaper than CDs, regardless of how much older it is, they still cost about the same. Vinyl is for people who want the rougher sound of vinyl, not people who want to download mp3 versions of the song. The people downloading those songs probably aren't concerned with the technicality of owning an original copy, either.
Mos Def has given me a whole new reason to want to see this. I was estactic when I read that he'd be playing Ford, although I never even thought about Ford being black. In addition to easily being my favorite rapper, he's also a pretty good actor. Should be cool. Let's hope he has a big say in the soundtrack, too.
But the law may not enable the United States to block access to the Web sites, if only for technical reasons.
