A bit of a buzz today around Om Malik’s How Yahoo Got Its Mojo Back with the attendant lovers and haters commenting along. As is the norm, a lot of the haters (of both Yahoo and Google) don’t know what they are talking about.

I still find it surprising how seemingly intelligent people can march up and down about how one service is amazing and the other is absolute rubbish. If it works for you, great. I know people who swear by the gmail interface, and others who swear at it. Some people want My Yahoo, and others prefer Google News. So be it.

Regardless, I think what makes both wonderful is the competition. Microsoft is coming? Hey, jump in – the water’s great.
