"After careful consideration, we have decided to close down our Yahoo US and Canada Auction sites to better serve our valued customers through other Yahoo properties," the U.S. auctions site told visitors on Tuesday.

Here's the link.

The train in my city is jacking up rates by 10% to "better serve passengers."

LOL that reminds me, when the postal service was considering closing on Saturdays as well, I remember it being presented as a way to "better serve postal customers".

Reminds me of McDonald's stating that "...our research finds our customers prefer a half slice of cheese on our Filet 'O Fish sandwich as compared to a full slice."

$2.99 Filet 'O Fish = 1/2 slice of cheese;  99¢ Double Cheeseburger = 2 slices of cheese.

Go figure...
