This would be HUGE.

Yahoo must be having problems, they're considering.

AP/MSNBC said:
REDMOND, Wash. - Microsoft Corp. has pounced on slumping Internet icon Yahoo Inc. with an unsolicited takeover offer of $44.6 billion in its boldest bid yet to challenge Google Inc.’s dominance of the lucrative online search and advertising markets.

The surprise offer of $31 per share, made late Thursday and announced Friday, comes with Sunnyvale-based Yahoo in a vulnerable position.

(Msnbc.com is a joint venture of Microsoft and NBC News.)

In a statement Friday, Yahoo said it will “carefully and promptly” study Microsoft’s bid.

Yahoo rested on their laurels and got lazy, so Google came along with new ideas and lots of initiative and has just about eviscerated them.

Google rocks. :larry:

Have you ever noticed that their websites take like a second to load while it takes other sites forever to load a frigging banner at times?

"The Google" (as President Bush so wisely said :rolleyes:) is the best!
