Yahoo betas for Windows first
from the I-think-we're-all-getting-a-little-too-paranoid dept
My friends over at News.com may be getting a little too paranoid these days. The conspiracy theory is being floated about that Yahoo is choosing Windows as it's preferred platform simply because they choose to release the new Yahoo Vision application for Windows and IE users first. Come on folks! This is the operating system and browser that the majority of users have, so it makes perfect sense that this is the beta platform.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
