What do you all think about MS trying to buy Yahoo? I am a bit ambivalent but there really isn't enough competition in the search engine space and MS has the $$$$$$$$$$$$
Microsoft is a dominating force i will miss Yahoo! for sure, has been my favorite i just hope that Microsoft doesn't ruin the service they are currently providing
well google needs competition and yahoo needs saving from itself! but once that happens there'll only be 2 competators... which is.. not much!
i think if MS bought yahoo and the price is like 44 billion $ right? ok but i am sure that Google will be the 1st because google was a part of yahoo before like 5 years and for many reasons... i prefer google.
Microsoft should do the following - buy yahoo then make offers for ebay , veoh (pretty popular site), aol (if they get aim.. they have basicly control of instant messaging) then move on into the phone world by buying a company.. invest in some movies... ect.. i mean they can grow pretty fast only if they got to the mp3 era faster then the ipod.
In my honest opinion, MS is Yahoo's only life line. Aol and Disney won't help Yahoo at all. Only thing that merger will help is providing us some cheap laughs.
Yahoo declined the offer by MSN. But I did hear that if MSN comes back with a better offer then Yahoo might accept. I think MSN just wanted to see where everyone was standing. A little test
I'd rather see someone innovative buy Yahoo and give Google a challenge. Microsoft stopped being particularly innovative after DOS went out of favor.
google part of yahoo? lol u'r joking me... yahoo used google's search for a while but google IS NOT AND NEVER WAS part of yahoo
Microsoft must acquire Yahoo to make healthily competition in search industry. At present Google is ruling the search as well online advertising market. With the merge there will be good competition and will benefit the online advertisers.
i prefer google alot more than yahoo, and i think the take over will make google even better, google will benefit from the competition. giving better services and they could grow even bigger! and us, web users, need the competition or google MAY abuse having control over the internet
Yahoo is not just a search engine, and it's not just search engines where Google is dominating ... its also advertising. And there we could all do with serious competition ... so maybe it'll be a good thing ... YPN would finally go international ... I hope.
i think that's a good thing if microsoft buys yahoo, because if microsoft doesn't buy it , google will buy it and then they will control all the web
