MSN Makes offer to buy Yahoo

[peterko]

I think it will benefit internet community when MSN makes real competition to Google. But honestly speaking, I don't believe Google will let MSN to win the battle so easy. All Google's history shows that company always comes up with new ideas leaving compatitors far away behind. That's my opinion.

Have a great day,
Peter

It is good for the public that MSN will buy Yahoo as to better compete with Google. Is MSN has no other option but to buy Yahoo? I think MSN would do other option , strategies or marketing plans than buying the site competitors.
But let's see and what will happen.

Yes, it is all over the news. MSN has made an unsolicited offer of $45 billion to buy Yahoo. This price is 60% higher than the Yahoo stock's closing price on the day the offer was made.

MSN wants to buy Yahoo to better compete with Google for #1 spot.

Let's see what happens.

Do you think this is good for the public or bad???

I think it is bad for the people. I would like to see a non-Microsoft company at #1 in search engine market. I don’t want to see Microsoft leading in all fronts. As a company, I like Microsoft and they produce good solutions as well. Microsoft should have some opponents for healthy competition for the benefit of the public.
Thats what i think

Lets see what happens!

I agree with you, Microsoft is good in providing a software and hardware solution but not in the search engine market. Microsoft should not compete with Yahoo and Google.

I think it will be a hard work for MSN to compete to google but maybe if those two(yahoo & msn) joined together they might compete with google at last!

[easycash81]

it may be good for MSn as they will get some help from yahoo in there war against google

[beveiliging]

Yahoo rejected MSN offer and ask for more money as i have expected but if MSN really want to compete Google they will agree with 40 billion dollar and buy Yahoo.
Actually it should be interesting to see how MSN after buying Yahoo go "in fight" with Google that have dominant internet position.

If MSN takes over Yahoo!, I hope the Yahoo brand will stay intact...I think MSN sucks and is littered with Spam sites...and their algo doesn't represent the most relevant sites for each keyword.

Yes, Yahoo brand should be stay due to yahoo brand bettter than msn so much.
