do you really want Yahoo! to be sold to microsoft?

Just by Microsoft acquiring Yahoo, does not mean that Yahoo's culture would be ruined.

It does depend on how it is executed, and the quality of staff.

I bought stock in companies like Overture, that were later bought by Yahoo. So, I do own Yahoo stock. I do not own Microsoft stock.

Does anyone remember when Yahoo let you post messages at the end of news articles? Well, Yahoo decided to shut that down instead of cultivating it. (so, now, you have competitor Digg) Remember, Yahoo auctions? Remember, how the renovation project for its search advertising was far behind schedule?

Anyone impressed by the Yahoo press about how they were going to make things better?

I hate to say it, but, perhaps, its time for someone else to make the decisions instead of who we have now at the head of Yahoo.

Google has the majority of search advertising traffic. Considering Google's privacy polices, I would really have more options for where folks want to search.

So, given current consolidation environment, I would suggest that Yahoo does get acquired by Microsoft.

I am terrified that they will charge ya to go to yahoo games and other places like YA! if Microsoft ends up buying Yahoo!...Why can't Yahoo just be left like it is? Why is Yahoo selling out? Gonna be a sad sad day!

You have just been attacked by the STARBUG!

I think Prince Bean should ask his King father to pull out his wallet and buy Yahoo.

Prince could then hand over YAM moderating duties to me and I'll hunt down every clone and troll and ban them forever.

I also pledge to restore all of those points from accounts that were suspended for no good reason.

Nope leave Yahoo alone. What's it going to be? Microhoo?

Yahoo should stay Yahoo, not MicrosoftY.

what do they want to name it after they've "taken" it? Yasoft?

Weird...
