Hell yes. Yahoo demonstrates some great engineering talent in various products.

What does Mahalo have? A scraped HTML linkfarm. Which are dime a dozen, except this one somehow evaded the google ban so far.

The whole "trying to crush Yahoo" notion is just surreal to me. Not only do I not see that happen. But I also think many people would miss yahoo and their products, whereas I have never seen anyone say anything positive about Mahalo.
