I could list off 20 different screw-up’s by Yahoo.
The biggest one for me was that I started up a blog when they offered the service. For roughly 18 months I used the Yahoo blog platform, and then one day they announced it was going away. I wanted to download and keep the 200 odd blogs that I’d written. They talked about a down-load feature....for weeks and weeks. As we got closer to the closure on the blog service....I asked about this download feature and the technician admitted that they couldn’t seem to get it to work. So no way to take my blogs with me. I sat there one night and individually copied each one and pasted it to a new service. Lot of the blog users were really negative about Yahoo after that.
They claim to have all these technicians working for them....but it seems that 99-percent are worthless, and it’s probably just six guys who make the nuts-and-bolts of the operation work as marginally as it does.
