The Word of mAn[S]o0r

I was reading this article from Yahoo Answers.. and somehow, my already low belief in the yahoo search engine capability was shattered even more..

The article is about "how many countries are there in the world" and here's what the author had to say...

We started our search by typing the whole unwieldy phrase -- "how many
countries in the world" -- into the Yahoo! search box. We realized the
chances of finding a Yahoo! category on the subject were about as small as Andorra,
but we were confident the Google
search results would point us in the right
direction.

Man! if people @ yahoo don't have confidence in their own product, why should anyone else use it?? For me.. its now.. Google or Bust !

Oh.. by the way.. the worlds countries are now either 189.. 191, 192 or as many as 266 depending upon the definition & criteria of a country.

Cheers!
