It seems that Yahoo's real mechansim to innovate is to emulate Google. Yahoo's innovation seems to come from outside primarily through acquisition (Flickr, Jumpcut, etc.). Now that Goog has lit a match under Yahoo, the media portal has to innovate than let its acquired properties rot in purgatory (ie: GeoCities). It will be nice to see Yahoo roll something out to show non-believers that it has indeed found its mojo. As far as the Merc's video, I personally like its newspaper. This videointerview is too long and should be more concise and edited so it doesn't come across as a vendor commerical.

this also reminds me of Van Halen's "Right Now" video. Or the one that played after INXS's "Need You Tonight" with all the words on cards.
