La semana pasada mi amigo Mariano Amartino me preguntaba que opinaba de la Alianza Google-Yahoo, y mi respuesta fue que me parece que se pierde una de las mejores oportunidades de generar una competencia fuete a google, que la industria necesita.

No tengo nada contra Google (es mas soy accionista) pero me parece que los monopolios hacen que se entorpezca el desarrollo de la industria.

Al neutralizar a yahoo como competidor, google logra eliminar al competidor con mayor experiencia en el terreno de text links ads y publicidad contextual.

Inclusive si se daba la adquisicion por parte de msn y potencialmente, newscorp iba a ser muy dificil poder tener una alternativa mas eficiente que google y definitivaamene no con la misma escala.

De esta manera se reducen mucho las posibilidades que alguien pueda ganarle a google en su mismo juego.

Ahora solo queda esperar que se desarrolle un cambio disrruptivo para que halla otra tecnologia que suplante la eficiencia de google ( probablemnete de la mano de facebook, newscorp, o talvez de apple) pero definitivamente estos cambios llevan mas tiempo.

Al menos asi lo veo yo…

Como yapa del post y a consecuencia de la falta de estrategia y vision consensuada y sumandome al post de Mariano sobre la estampida que esta teniendo Yahoo agrego esta lista que me pasaron con los nuevos puestos, a los que hay que adicionar al equipo de Argentina y Mexico:
