Microsoft ♥ Yahoo

Bing Search + Yahoo Adverts

https://www.choicevalueinnovation.com/thedeal/Default.aspx
So, the deal is, Yahoo is going to be powered by Bing (Microsoft) search, and Microsoft will drop its online advertising business in favor of Yahoo's.

But isn't Bing just another way of Googling?

As soon as "Googling" became a verb, the rest had no chance.
I really can't imagine things working out for them, no matter how much they try.

Bing is waaaaaay more successful then Windows Live Search, and brings quite a clean and more advanced interface for search. I am still a devout Google user, but products like Bing will undoubtedly result in a rise in the quality of Google's search engine (and I'm not trying to say it's a low quality product).

One of the founders at Google is also rumoured to be in charge of a new team who's sole objective is to study Bing, it's scared them that much. Regardless of if you think it's good or not, I believe MS are the only software company who can punch their way into the market place. They have come from nowhere so many times with a new high-quality product, never doubt their productivity.

Finally, the ex Yahoo CEO was crazy to have turned down Microsoft's offer last year!

Apparently Bing's video search is fantastic.

Not that I'd know, 'cause I haven't used it yet.

Bing is pretty darn good, i have to admit. I've been using it since it was released to test it out, and its results aren't half bad at all.
