"A Reuters release notes that Yahoo Inc will stop letting consumers access its various online services, including Fantasy Sports and photo-sharing site Flickr, by signing-in with their Facebook Inc or Google Inc credentials. The move marks the latest change to Yahoo by Chief Executive Marissa Mayer, who is striving to spark fresh interest in the company's Web products and to revive its stagnant revenue.

The change, which will be rolled out gradually according to a Yahoo spokeswoman, will require users to register for a Yahoo ID in order to use any of the Internet portal's services."

    I'm not ashamed to admit that when Facebook starts to decline in the way you mention, I will metaphorically be on the couch laughing hysterically eating junk food with spittle coming from my mouth, and possibly throw the sour cream dip at the TV.

    Think of that scene in Harry and the Hendersons.

    Never has a company or product been so hyped and over valued in this history of economies, with the possible exception being that of the Emperor's New Clothes.
