Why is Yahoo finding new ways to keep people on the internet and not out living life to the fullest?

yahoo? likes to take control of people's lives and make them do what the company would like for them to do.  DO YOURSELF A FAVOR!!!!! GET A DIFFERENT SERVICE, theyare only making it so you have to pay eventually, one way or the other

People depend on the internet far too much, you should use the newspaper daily and read the classifieds section help wanted.

It must be a lot of fun to work at Yahoo (and at Google too, I bet!). Globally, Internet companies usually have a non-traditional management style, which makes it better for employees to work at too.... and therefore, increases productivity!

Some people are just plain stupid that they are browsing through other people's profiles they just go ahead and add them w/ no intention to maintain some kind of relationship, not even the one where they just send comments to you every now and then.  The obvious answer to My Space's purpose is to just have fun and "meet" other people, but it sometimes doesn't seem like it.  But I've found so many people that I lost contact with, so some cases the purpose can be to get back in touch w/ old friends.

IT SEEMS THAT ANYONE WHO SPENDS ALL DAY ON LINE NEEDS TO GET A LIFE.ON THE OTHER HAND THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER, ARE SAVED FROM A LONELY LIFE BY GOING ON LINE. I 'M NOT TALKING ABOUT THE ONES WHO PREY ON YOUNG CHILDREN. I HOPE THERE IS A SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM SOON.\nI GUESS YOU AND I HAVE OTHER THINGS TO DO DURING THE COURSE OF A DAY AND,USE OUR TIME WISELY. MAYBE SOMEDAY WE WILL BE SPENDING MORE TIME ON THE FASCINATING WORLD OF THE INTERNET.

you are absolutely right and there should be a separate page maybe you should email yahoo about it.predators are on the rise and you should never meet or call anyone you do not know. parents also should their job by monitoring what their children are doing on the net.THIS IS NOT INVADING YOUR PRIVACY\njust making sure their children are safe.

it might be slow because yahoo has a lot of member connecting to it throughout the world and it could be slowing the server down or because your isp has a lot of users logged onto it.

I'd have to say that they are probably just for fun and to make us feel accomplished.  I think it also helps to get people addicted to answers and so they keep coming back so Yahoo continues to make money.

It's not intended to be for kids or perverts only.  It's intended to be a networking site as a way for people to communicate and keep up with one another.  It just happens that it took off for younger people quicker then it did for others.

I think if someone really wanted to, they could figure out so much info about a person.. People leave what they think are very small pieces of info, but when added up, you're leaving yourself wide open.  But that's true of any internet site people contribute to regularly.

Actually, every host does have the capability to collect the IP addreses, and most do, it's just that Yahoo is forewarning you. I like that they do, because it makes the good guys feel more comfortable, and the bad guys just go away.

Thats very true.Just another way to let people think they can solve their problems and say: "\nHey, I can solve my problems!! I'm joining Yahoo!!"\nVery smart on Yahoo's part.\n\n\nPS. PHANTOM ROX

As stated above, I don't think Yahoo is concerned with the Internet Browser market.  What many Internet companies are focasing on now is the concept of the "run from anywhere" application.  Look for example at the Yahoo Mail Beta interface... looks a lot like something you'd see with a desktop mail application.  I see Yahoo expanding with "office-like" applications, especially now that Google has hinted at their development of such things, plus the possibility for unlimited online storage!
