Yahooo! + Microsoft and Google on the other side !! well, that’s going to be an interesting equation then, if Microsoft wins the Yahoo! deal.
If the deal works out, do you think its going to give a tough competition for Google ?
Do you think Microsft will acquire Yahoo! soon ?
I don’t think its going to give tough competition for Google. Why ? Yahoo! was always behind Google on this online search engine market and other goodies… Microsoft has less experience in this field, and MSN, is kind of failure too. So, bringing them together, is not going to affect Google much.
Now, the question is, will Yahoo! accept this offer ? Do you think so ? personally, I would say “Yes”. Yahoo! really want to do something to put themselves back on track. They need more confidence, money, power.. which Microsoft can provide them. So, whats Yahoo!’s response so far ?
“From the Yahoo! Yodel Corporate Blog:
As I’m sure you’ve heard by now, Microsoft made an unsolicited proposal to acquire Yahoo! yesterday evening. Since then, we’ve gotten quite a number of questions about what this means for Yahoo!. Right now our board of directors is evaluating the proposal and looking at all of our strategic alternatives, including maintaining Yahoo! as an independent company.”
PS: I will try to track this story deeper and give you more info 
even though, I am a bit busy atm.
There are new updates. Google has offred yahoo to help them with their search engine. Hope yahoo goes to google instread to the uncle Sam (Read Microsoft)
Ooh !! thats a big new indeed .. where did you find that ? hmm I am searching for it now thanks buddy
Dinsan: Of course, Yahoo turned MS down. For many reasons.
The offer however was made because the sum of Yahoo and Microsoft’s share of the search market in the US is nothing to sneezet at. But Yahoo thinks it deserves more than the 62% premium they were offered? I don’t think so!
The Yahoo board is hardly the epitome of value creation if you follow the history of Yahoo.
