John C. Dvorak talks on why Carl Icahn could be Yahoo founder Jerry Yang’s worst nightmare, including the laughability of bringing Cuban on the Yahoo board just because Yahoo was dumb enough to pay him billions for Broadcast.com more than a decade ago.
Seen Cuban’s history on recent free agent signings and trades, Carl? You might want to think again.
And, Yang might want to thing about Microsoft again, even as it dangles the idea of a cooperative partnership of some sort, rather than full ownership.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
