Talk about internet portal rivalry getting more aggressive day by day! My question is why would Yahoo MD enter the event at his own risk?? Wouldn’t he hire some people if at all he wanted to get pictures clicked?? Well im not too sure who is right and who is wrong here.. All i can say is the competition for a piece of the pie is getting tougher by the day and the heat is getting to the top management as well!
