I dont like Microsoft much but for me it would be really a bad day, when Google and Yahoo go together. Google is just too big in the Search and Advertising market. Microsoft and Yahoo could together try to match Google and put up an interesting fight.

Have to concur with this statement. It does seem that the MicroHoo saga is far from finished, and that Microsoft definitely wants in on Yahoo’s action. Maybe the looming facebook merger will tie these loose ends together, with Yahoo being able to trawl the data in the walled community that is facebook, with Google being excluded. Aiming at the hugely popular and growing social segment is definitely key here.

I agree that MSN are buying into the brand more than the actual business – that’s why they should have accepted.
But saying that Yahoo is cool and trendy is a bit much!Maybe it’s just cuz I am in the UK where it’s got such a smaller share than in the US…
