As you can read on Yahoo! News :) the game just went to another level. The bid is a bit (few billions) smaller but now … they're running buttnaked from the horny donkey. This is how I picture Yahoo! and Microsoft.
There are two options.
Software related I'm sold to Microsoft. And many others are or just are sick and tired of Google. Either way there will be a major battle from which we will all benefit. Right now Google has 'monopoly' in terms of search but I trully hope that will change. They need to get some serious competition.
Microsoft + Yahoo! = Google's Competiton
… keep your fingers crossed and hope for this to work. But, in the end, it all cuts down to what searchers use and I know Microsoft Windows runs on a hell lot of computers.
