Best Quote I've Seen So Far re: Microsoft/Yahoo
"It is a shotgun marriage, but the person holding the shotgun is Google"
That descries the situation pretty well.
Honestly? I'd like to see YHOO stay independent. Being an internet person, it would be sad for me to see one of the original internet
giants swallowed up by the house that Gates built. It's also a horrifying merger from pretty much every conceivable standpoint. Mismatched systems, divergent ideologies, competing services, scale… I wouldn't want to unravel any of it.
For my part, I just hope they leave del.icio.us and flickr alone.
