They are utterly 'irrelevant' i don't care if they make money or not. but they are barely relevant. and this is actually worse than dying. They are everywhere yet nowhere.

What exactly Yahoo is, can someone explain LIM5. and who their target customers are consumer or corporate???

I am not talking their subsidiaries, just Yahoo. Alibaba is cool, but that's not enough.

They are not even trying at anything. They are not even exploring anything.

All I can say, they can do better than this.

Not commenting on the general sentiment of what you wrote but I think that's a tough question even in the context of a successful business like google.

Exactly, this kind of comment might as well have been written about Berkshire Hathaway. Who are they? What do they even do? Down with that false prophet Warren Buffett! /sarcasm
