Google is really big at the moment w.r.t to online services.

I dont think, MS+yahoo combination will beet Google search service. But yeah..there is big change they beat in other services. But this wont happen instantly..they need to work hard and have patience.

Personally I think, MS need to change some services.
Like add a blog service like Google bolggers. Live space is not very attractive for writers.
Promote its ads services like Google adsense, with some attractive features for advertiser and publishers.

This deal is all about money. Yahoo is a very big compony user wise, Yahoo Messenger has the largest IM users all over I think...not sure though. It will take years for Microsoft to shelf it if that's what they want.

A few good things can indeed happen, like a new Unified Messenger, unified services....Flickr integration in Windows or things like that..

But personally I don't want this merger to happen, but the services to merge.

i havnt used flickr (too many accounts to handle) but they say its good if they allow me to use my hotmail id then i will use it so yeah im looking forward to this merger .... this merger is all about merging services and client/user base and i dont think MS will make any radical changes to yahoo mail or yahoo messenger msn and yahoo will most probably remain separate entities only further integration between services

If yahoo is merged with Microsoft...than all yahoo ID will have windows live ID features. And you will be able to login at hotmail. And while logging you will have to enter full e-mail ID as xxx@yahoo.com

Microsoft live Ids............
MSN messenger
Microsoft Live writer
Microsoft live mail (E-mail client)

Microsoft worked for more than 5 year, to bring Vista, and paid all developers for their work. And if they are asking money for it, than they are crap..huh

But why many think MS ask for money for all its services.
They are giving many things for free, but people dont care about that.They only remember XP/ vista/ office.

Google is never going to bid for Yahoo. Even if they want to, they will not get it because of government regulations.

Second, Microsoft's first priority is to merge both Yahoo and Microsoft advertisement model in order to get more market share and take over google..
