Microsoft and Yahoo Reach Deal
e9th writes "We know that Microsoft failed last February in its attempt to buy Yahoo. Now, Advertising Age reports that they've reached a deal. Instead of a buyout, the two will enter into a revenue sharing agreement, and Bing will become Yahoo's default search engine. The meat of the AdAge article can be found in Yahoo News. This deal may give Google something to worry about."

Good idea. Most people probably wouldn't think to cancel their account, but an announcement from an important person like yourself will serve as an example to others. If it were anyone else we wouldn't care, but you..... you are truly special. Thanks for taking the time to share your personal life with us. Please, in the future, continue to let us know which companies you will abandon out of spite.
Just one reminder though, Yahoo was never your friend. Nobody working at that company gave two liquid shits what you or anyone you know has ever done. It's OK though. They didn't care, but we do.
They might be using Bing engine but at least it wont say bing in the title or anywhere on the page. Bing was a really lame name choice, it was used years back when they asked a obvious question and you gave them the answer, it is like a polite version of 'dumbass'.
So I use M$'s search and its like here's your answer 'dumbass' you should have already know it. It reflects the old game shows before they got caught cheating, started off somewhat neutral and shifted to a more negative connotation.
M$ had better pick up pretty quick that if people prefer MSN search or Live Search ahead of 'BING/Dumbass' search let them use it.
Now you might think that is pretty petty but hey search engines are much of a muchness, so mild irritations are more than enough to shift choice. M$ catch up to google, never without street view, it is really handy and a fun thing to use and play with.
Chaos - everything, everywhere, everywhen
I know I shouldn't feed the troll, but... If Asians took your point of view, they would consider Aryan "princesses" to be promiscuous beasts who perpetually cheat on their partners and sacrifice their families' and children's well-being for their personal gain.
Make the world a better place by ceasing to exist. Thanks.
