Neo, I think cfinke is referring to ALL their plumbing. The Yahoo! Store Editor had a major hiccup this evening. This morning, the image servers were in a meltdown. And through the day there appear to have been routing problems somewhere between the East Coast and California, although running a tracert leads me to believe that was in Texas and not a Yahoo problem.
But the concept is utterly fascinating, and it goes hand in hand with some other things Yahoo is doing to innovate. It's an interesting start on regaining lost ground.

What are all of the pipes for and the pop up ads? Yahoo is getting so ridiculous no one will visit it. I had trouble getting on too.
What happened to the discuss option?
