I couldn't agree more. I remember talking to a senior exec (acquired as part of a startup buyout) at a previous job and he stressed that there's always room under the big contenders (in areas they can't or don't care about) in any market until you begin to chip away at their market share and become one yourself. In an ideal world, I guess. Good post.

I really do want to be a Yahoo! fanboy too. Wish they would improve Flickr before I migrate to 500px.
