Also, If Yahoo and other companies keep insisting on using 'sub domains' in their advertising campaigns... Would not all these company's be much better off using 'full domains' like musicyahoo.com,yahoomusic.com, yahoovideo.com, videosyahoo.com for advertising and promotionals and redirecting them back to their corresponding 'sub domains'...instead of actually relying on just the 'sub domains'? I find it completely bizarre & backwards that say Verizon will use: verizon.com/highspeed or verizon.com/broadband in a multi million dollar ad campaigns. Instead of of using verizonhighspeed.com or verizonbroadband.com and just redirecting these to their corresponding 'sub domains'. IMHO...I really do not think a company like Verizon should even 'redirect' or use any 'sub domains'. They should just build stand alone mini sites for specific products and services. Peace! Dan Hi,

I would hazard a guess that in the majority of instances, it just isn't. Sometimes you get the impression the goal is not so much growth as volatility. Lets face it, arbritraging good solid steady growth is a really tough call.

I mean they can do nothing right. I stopped using launch when they switched just like you did. I would think they a buy but the market believes GOOGLE the smart play crossed $730 and yhoo goes down on a day when an IPO in Hong Kong opens big and they own a big piece.
