Google and Yahoo! 'move closer' to ad wedlockPosted Friday 18th April 2008 05:04 GMT
This has to be the best news on the whole MS wanting to buy Yahoo thing... I hope they sign very long contracts with little way out of them ;-)
I don't really care for Yahoo that much but I do use some of their services. MS would almost certainly break the likes of Flickr and the Yahoo Groups. Probably to make it more "user friendly".

I'm not sure what's worse a yahoo owned by MS or an even more powerful Google. I'm edging towards the prior as Microsoft's attempts to take on Google will most likely fail and they appear to be on a slippery slope to irrelevances anyway.

Buying Yahoo (especially with long ad contracts with Google) would probably cripple them.

Just realized I could have 3 different icons here. Oh, and my jacket.
