Schadenfreude

Yahoo! Inc. demonstrated its commitment to excellence yesterday by its bold proclamation to be #2.

"It's not our goal to be No. 1 in Internet search." Chief Financial Officer Susan Decker said in an interview. Basically, Yahoo is placing flowers at the feet of Google.

To boost future revenues, Yahoo! plans to beef up its "pay for advertising click" scheme. This scheme was deftly criticized in this month's Wired magazine.

Decker went on to give its shareholders the proverbial tin blanket of hope: "We have held our own," Decker said in the interview after the company reported earnings last week.

Did you read Yahoo!s response to this though? It's hilarious. I have a link to it on my blog with my response to their response ;)
