Microsoft buying Yahoo!

Post by MrAlex »

Well,
Microsoft are going to buy Yahoo! for around $53Billion:eek:
Do you think this is the right choice?
I think it would have been better if they bought google :D
What do you think?

Well, i guess that clearly shows how desperate Microsoft is to win its battle against Google!

Google will not be on sale as it is the one who is doing so great business as to give tough time even to Microsoft and also the reason why Yahoo is in losses and is for sale!

I personally am pleased by this. I think it will improve both the Microsoft and Yahoo online services. As they both have different good points, if they're combined, it should be even better.

Microsoft buying Yahoo makes sense; it removes some competition. I personally only use Yahoo for their Yahoo! Music service, other than that I stay clear from Yahoo.
It seems odd that Yahoo wish to sell though :confused:

I use Yahoo! Mail occasionally, if I need more storage space. Though the Microsoft bid to take yahoo failed, they're trying to make a "Partnership Deal" now.
