Last week I read in one of my trade publications about the fight between Yahoo and Microsoft in Microsoft's bid at $45 billion to buy Yahoo. The deal sezz Yahoo the price offered for the buy is way too low. Okay so what? Who the hell uses much of Yahoo anyway. I use Yahoo messenger and mail but that's about all forget Yahoo's classifieds section that makes it a requirement to rake out the plastic to post an ad, especially a help wanted ad. Too many people are in debt due to over using their plastic money. Most of these debt reduction help companies are out for high commissions paid by the credit card money to recover that money, but only if you owe $10,000.00 or more. How about a credit help service to those of us trying to dig out of debt due to greedy ex wives or Trust Fund administrators who say go out and put the deal together and we'll pay for it, but when it comes to pony up, the Trust Fund Trustee sezz we'll look at it some more. Which mean egg on my face and more of an axe to MY credit not his. Then let's look at Internet Service Providers who will tell you anything just to keep you a customer but then never follow through. To date BridgeMaxx still has not sent a service tech out to see me, and the same throughput is still slow if it makes the trip at all. Yet I have a wifi connection only a cuppl spaces down from me and while slow the thing rolls on through. It's not all BridgeMaxx's fault however as the pipe is only so big and only so much water or web traffic can flow through that pipe. In computereeze its called bandwidth. And let's face it on a Saturday night with only reruns of Still Standing on our local CW KPIF-15 here in Pocatello Idaho on that TV most who are in between welfare and SSI checks are on the web. Out of 45,000 people in one place 20,000 or so are on BridgeMaxx and that's a bunch of traffic. As Microsoft looks to force buy Yahoo, both FoX and AOL are looking at snatching up Yahoo, just as Yahoo, is making a undercover deal with Google. For more 411 look up the article on eweek.com As I close this out for this Saturday I must say to my friend Brian, as bad as your hurting for ad money pal, can you continue to ignore me? Farmer Wants a Wife is coming up faster than a run away truck down Bliss grade (Bliss is a small town in Idaho with a 8% grade just outside town limits) Farmer Wants A Wife is the perfect venue for Dixie Towing maybe pal you need to come see me.
