Dethroned as top dog in some categories, but still strong in others.

Yahoo! News still dominates Google News, Yahoo! Finance still dominates Google Finance. Yahoo! Answers is pretty much unrivaled in Q&A category (I know, I know, the quality is not there, but all we care is traffic figures)

For many of the Google searches a site on *.yahoo.com network is still a top result.

Even if traffic was the most important thing, one news site won't save you from the big bad wolf.

Those things are all being replaced by newer forms of news sites, QA sites, finance sites, etc.
