Yahoo And Google

[dazuk1972]

I'm in the UK. How come I can no longer get on the American Yahoo and Google? When I type the American addresses their databases change the American ones to the British ones. I prefer the American Yahoo because it has more. The British one lacks some options such as the Yahoo Message Boards. Is there a way around this? I know this has happened for months now but I don't know why Yahoo and Google have done this. Unless it's because they want their own countries viewing their sites only.

Many thanks.

The American advertisers don't want British visitors, advertising pays for most everything.

You have to pay the piper

I'm not being funny here but the Americans that control those sites seem to be acting racist.

Hi Fellas. the euro's changing everything. If it wasn't 4 foreign oil we'd probably be driving and riding in American cars exclusively. Hey, they're slick about raising their prices so we have to spend more, so why can't we? IE: the proggie in Blu's thread which they're forcefully trying to make us pay more for. I would of named the darn thing, but I'm getting senior moments here n there.

Yeah - I wonder if $ly$h!t will drop the prices now that the US$ has recovered somewhat. My crystal ball is extemeley clear on this one - no CEO birthday special price adjustment down in St Johns for $$ customers.

It's a shame we can't get on those sites anymore. As far as I know we can still get on the American MSN.

Speaking of swimmers, figure out this. With synchronized swimmers, if one drowns, do they all have to?

@dazuk1972: No they don't, but they'll all drown 4 sure in the fact that they won't win the big prize if there is one.
