For those who haven’t been following the business news, Microsoft made a bid to acquire Yahoo recently (rejected), and since then Microsoft has been making moves to deliberately assassinate Yahoo’s stock price, while also trying to force a hostile takeover over one of the Internet’s first big-time companies and websites. At the same time, Jerry Yang (Yahoo co-founder) re-took the reigns of Yahoo as CEO and has been re-positioning the company’s business while also protecting Yahoo from a hostile take-over. The press, depending on what you’ve read, has been saying otherwise.
The entire situation can be found here in a NY Times article with Jerry Yang.
I hope Google takes over. haha Microsoft doesn’t know how to follow web standards.
