It was delightful to see Bill and Steve sharing a stage and reminiscing about their stuff, but I was surprised that Bill (gadgets) and Steve (widgets) didn’t settle the debate about the original inventor of the widget. One can never have too many widgets. Somebody codes something you never even dreamed of wanting - suddenly everybody lig tv izle bedava ligtv izle garibim deyimler şiir türleri çet chat sohbet needs a whole bunch of widgets because they don’t impinge too much on the screen/template real estate.

Honestly, you guys have no idea how pissed I am at how misleading YHOO has been to its shareholders. One day we’re hearing from Yang and his stooge Roy about how Yang is the only guy set to lead the company and how no one else knows YHOO like Yang, and now where hearing that this conversation has been happening for months. Couldn’t Yang have done the honorable thing months and months ago and saved us about $35b in the process? If I hadn’t lost so much on this moron I’d sue them into oblivion. Clearly the board was asleep at the switch and forgot that they had some responsibility to the shareholders. I hope someone with a lot more money then I have left sues these guys into oblivion. BTW, nice timing on Icahn’s article lecturing about board responsibility.

Sadly for me I got hit with margin calls all of the last few weeks and own a fraction of the shares that I once owned. He should have done the honorable thing months ago and resigned and saved his shareholders billions. He tarnished any legacy that he once may have had because of his oversized ego. He should have done the MSFT deal in Febuary and he’d be a hero, instead he’s a pathetic figure that is loathed by just about everyone.
