Lycos Trying to Take Away Yahoo! Clients

from the how-to-be-competitive dept

Lycos is apparently thinking about trying to pay (in some form) GeoCities users to switch to Tripod or Angelfire. They liken it to phone companies offering payment to switch companies. The thing I thought was most amusing, though, was the revelation that if you go to Lycos and do a search for Yahoo, it gives you a nice little message that Lycos is really much cooler.
