In the land of “we have lots of money and can buy anything we damn well want”, MS made an unsolicated bid for Yahoo! today of nearly $45,000,0000,000 - wow! Now will this get ok’d? All I know is it is a big move and shows the obvious power of Google and MS need to get market share anyway it can - aka just like they always have - MONEY!

CNNMoney story about it with all the details

Personally, I do not like it. I think MS is a shitty company with a crappy attitude toward service, customers, competition and down right everything else. I think Yahoo is a darling of the “what could have been” and is still one of the most visited sites. I believe the Yahoo Mail page is the number 1 or 2 visited page on the internet! UGH.

So what should we call the new company? MS Yahoo!? MicroHoo? YaSoft?
