As someone that works with both Yahoo and Google
They have some major difference there
Yahoo is run by Media and Hollywood type of people that in most cased dont understand internet technology much. We'll see how well they do with VOD and mobile stuff, but so far much of their technology is behind Google.

Google on the other hand is hungry for innovation. They've hired a shitload of smart techy MIT graduate type of people that can think outside the box and innovate at the same time. Its fun watching this company.
