The only thing is use Yahoo for is a spam email account. Whenever I need an email address to sign up for something and I think I will get spam from it, I use the yahoo address.

Honestly I use yahoo way more, I don't know why I just do. I think it's the categories. Google for image searches.

yahoo for sports scores, news, stocks.
google to search.

since i spend more time checking scores and reading news stories, i'd have to say yahoo over google.

i agree. it was better for me to use google when i had dial up.
