Well, Yahoo has officially rejected Microsoft’s $44.5 billion proposal. No biggie … Microsoft has other ways to get Yahoo — if they are truly serious.

I’m still thinking Microsoft’s ownership of Yahoo will be much better than giving 90+% of the pay-per-click business to Google. If Google gets Yahoo’s ad space, Google will be in position for an anti-trust case.

Well, they haven’t finalized the deal yet.  Hopefully they do.

Google’s now trying to bribe Yahoo into staying out of Microsoft’s hands.  No matter how you peel this onion, Google owning any piece of Yahoo should be an anti-trust issue.

Google’s “do no evil” would certainly be revoked IF Google gets its hands on Yahoo.  Owning more than 80% of the PPC market will certainly give Google more power than it should have.

If Microsoft could make a real play at improving search, the day it happens will be enjoyable for many people.

You ask why?  Short answer is I’m no Google fan.

Sure Microsoft has it’s problems, but doesn’t everyone?
