Yahoo! capitulates, sort of

Yahoo! doesn't "think it's reasonable to assume we're going to gain a lot of share from Google," according to CFO Susan Decker. "It's not our goal to be No. 1 in Internet search. We would be very happy to maintain our market share." Indeed... this sounds realistic, and I have to admit I haven't even been thinking of Yahoo as a search company. I consider it more of a media aggregator. If Yahoo's smart, it'll move to the intersection of media and interactivity - more community-based. For instance, if I was Yahoo, I'd be trying to buy Salon and its online communities, Table Talk and the WELL. [Link]

Meanwhile Yahoo! says it's not giving up on search... just search dominance. I guess you could call that a capitulation.
