Woke up the other day with a thought about Yahoo!’s slow death (yes, straight from the bed).

What if pieces of Yahoo! get acquired one after the other? Just like pirates waiting to salvage on a burning wreck. It’ll be a mad race to get Flickr, Delicious, Mail, Messenger, Ask and Pipes! That would be fun to watch.

Somebody please publish a list of Yahoo! products and services sorted by its value. It looks like a better way out than slowly killing the whole thing and laying off people.

On another thought, Yahoo! should really open source their Messenger. We have another wave of worms that sends weight loss spam from infected users. The next best thing that they could do is publish the protocol so file transfers on libpurple works as it should. I am that selfish.
