Yahoo is a great gauge for "is this meme dead or not". I find that Yahoo pretty much latches on to things six months after the original in-the-knows consider it dead, and two months after the mainstream consider it dead.
The sad thing is they really think they are hardcore underground journalists.
ATTN YAHOO: Hardcore underground journalists are not writers for syndicated papers who occasionally want to write articles for a family-friendly site that is second in traffic only to Google.
