Alessandro17 Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/sfgate...23958&tsp=1 Google is trying to ride to Yahoo's rescue to fend off a $44.6 billion takeover bid of the Sunnyvale Web portal by Microsoft. Eric Schmidt, Google's chief executive, called Yahoo CEO Jerry Yang to offer help Friday, just after Microsoft disclosed its $44.6 billion offer, according to news reports.

Lostgame Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 I'm reminded of the Microsoft/Apple monopoly debacle. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/85737-google-offers-to-help-yahoo/#findComment-608431 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayanami Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 It shall be interesting. I never really cared for Yahoo! much though. I used Netscape's site for my first E-mail and personal home page, and loved it. Yahoo! was popular with some other kids I knew, but just seemed like a knock off. I don't know who actually came up with that sort of thing first, though. I like Google, I love Gmail, and can only see positive if Yahoo! deals with Google, or if MS Live takes it over.

Alessandro17 Posted February 4, 2008 Author Share Posted February 4, 2008 It shall be interesting. I never really cared for Yahoo! much though. Neither did I, but I find it really dangerous for competition if Microsoft adds a powerful search engine to everything else.
