Yahoo has just triggered a war in the internet world by giving hints about the tie-up with Google. What do you thing about this? Microsoft offers a $44.6 billion for Yahoo!!! If Microsoft buys Yahoo, do you think its going to be different for the users of Yahoo Messenger or Yahoo Mail? Do you think Microsoft will create a situation of monopoly? Whats your say on this? I am too curious to know...

HI, Well YAHOO is YAHOO! Every e-mail client providers want to tie-up with it or to Buy it. But if it will be bought by Microsoft then there will be many merits & demerits with it. Like: It will be embedded with the Windows Updates, no need to install Yahoo externally. But Microsoft may make its precious free services a Paid one. Thats what my views are. have a nice day.

Well, I don't think MS don't have the talent to build the services Yahoo have. Yahoo is popular because it provide free and a wide range of services. So, In my opinion if MS buys Yahoo. Then it's popularity will increase or decrease based on how MS serve it. what do you think.
