Microsoft/Yahoo..Will it happen???

I am sure it is because I work in high-tech but things like the possibility of the Microsoft/Yahoo deal fascinate me…

I can definitely see the appeal for Microsoft, MSN.com has never really kicked off the way Yahoo or Google have, in addition its IM service is not nearly where the Yahoo IM has risen. I can also see Yahoo’s point, it doesn’t want to be controlled by Microsoft but will Yahoo every be in a position to compete with Google, I don’t think so.

Time will tell and it will be very interesting…
