Yahoo finally took a pause from throwing Flickr Parties and trying to buy the naming rights to “Web 2.0″ to meet analysts estimates for Q1 of ‘06.

In fairness to Yahoo they truely have become the ugly older brother of Google. Google has a strangle hold on the online PR market and any bad news for Google is bad news for Yahoo; Google has control of the tides so to speak. But while Google is a one trick pony(at least for now), Yahoo has multiple streams of revenue.

Susan Decker(CFO) explaining how Yahoo has the whole world in it’s hands…….

Just to add one more thing, not specifically on the demographics but as Dan said, the demographics of Yahoo! represent the demographics of the nation and the world. We have had a lot of questions on companies like this of late who have grown very, very rapidly. I think an interesting stat to look at is, if you look at our overall user numbers, we have, in six months, added 50 million users which is as much as the amount of users that MySpace has, for example.

It is very important to note that we’re growing very rapidly in users from a very large base. It is in large part because of the community strategy that we have adopted across every one of our verticals.

Yahoo just launched FIFA Wolrd Cup Mobile, backing up their claim of catering to the world’s demographics.
