Gee, I Never Thought Of It Like That

"Yahoo is Jan to Google's Marsha."
-- Ernie, Little. Yellow. Different. (And Yahoo Employee.)

Now I have this picture in my head of Jeremy yelling "Marsha Marsha Marsha!" The last few neurons I had just curled up in the corner and are sobbing gently.

So Yahoo is Jan, and Google is Marsha, which I guess would make Gigablast Bobby, and Feedster Greg, and Vivisimo Peter, and PubSub Cindy, and Ask Jeeves as Alice, as if you didn't see that coming a mile away. And I think I've officially run this analogy into the ground.

No wait, and Technorati as Mike. And LookSmart as cousin Oliver.

Update: I am reminded that LookSmart has made FindArticles a thing of beauty and a joy forever, so I revoke my Cousin Oliver designation pending actually remembering some other character from The Brady Bunch...
