Yahoo says talks with Microsoft are dead - U.S. business- msnbc.com

oops


Yahoo Inc. has ended all talks involving a business deal with Microsoft, burying any chance that the software maker might revive its attempt to buy the Internet pioneer.



The development, announced Thursday, is expected to lead to an advertising partnership between Yahoo and another rival, Internet search leader Google. That alliance is expected to be announced after the stock market closes.

I guess this is when the shareholder rebellion starts and people start betting pools to see who guesses how long before Jerry's head is stuck on a pike. Hopefully by the time the shit hits the fan (again, it comes in installments) maybe they figure out what to do to keep Flickr alive and autonomous.


And Microsoft is not going to fare any better, they are still catching flak for starting this mess.
