Internet Wars: Report Card

Recently, CNN published an article on measuring performance of search engines, in terms of financial activities. The article is quite an interesting read ... it analyzes the top search engines and measure / compare their actual economic performance. If you don't like to jump ahead to the article, here are the results:

  • Google: A ("most likely to succeed, but needs to diversify")
  • Yahoo: B+ ("well rounded but still not living up to the potential")
  • MSN: C- ("Has to be more diligent to catch up to the competitors")
  • AOL: C+ ("recognizes weaknesses, but is it too little too late?")
  • Ask.com : B- ("an A for effort, but needs to keep working hard")

Cool!!
