    Well, now this is interesting! Hopefully YPN can go international now, though it's a 10 year deal.

    I strongly believe that Bing has a bright future. A day will come when Google will face a tough competition from Bing.

    Does that mean Yahoo search will go?

    It sure sounds like it. Yahoo wouldn't use Bing if Yahoo search remains around, would they?

    I think microsoft is aiming at Yahoo's vase resource database which has been mined since the boom of internet revolution

    Some folks over at the big G will be working overtime in the next few weeks. Time to step up their game plan.

    I think it will create some problems for webmasters, some sites which are well ranked in yahoo and not in bing, after that their ranking will be dropped in yahoo also..

    They have not yet concluded. The deal will close in 2010. Competition is important, but I doubt if Yahoo! & Microsoft parley is a huge threat to Google search.

    BING will definitely give a tough fight to GOOGLE. That's for sure.
