Right since the begining of my cyber life I have been using Yahoo and never ever regretted it. It helped me a lot during my apping days and was the constant source of information for me. I love it. But as time goes by things change and now I think google is much better as a search engine than yahoo but yahoo is much more deep and well developed in other aspects. YAhoo messenger, yahoo finance, yahoo mail .. u name it and yahoo is there. I love the games section of yahoo. It has everything on the net at your disposal just a few clicks away.
No doubt it has maintained its status as the number one site for such a long period. IT deserves to be the number one!
