End of Yahoo?

As quoted from my favorite tech site:


Microsoft Wants To Buy Yahoo at $44.6 Billion! by SweBee.com

Microsoft has proposed an acquisition of Yahoo! for $31 per share or at apporximately $44.6 billon in cash and stock. Yahoo's latest disappointing earnings announcement helped to depress the stock price, making it a renewed target for a takeover.




If Microsoft success to acquire Yahoo, then how about Yahoo online services that are very familiar with many users? Many of Yahoo services are similar to Microsoft services. Will Yahoo services that are similar to Microsoft will be dead?

For example, will Yahoo Mail, Yahoo Finance or Yahoo Messenger still exist after the acquisition of Yahoo? Microsoft must rethinking of doing so, because Yahoo more expert and better than Microsoft in online media services.

No one can expect what will be happened after the acquisition of Yahoo. And for Yahoo lover, we can just wait and see for Microsoft action if Yahoo sell them to Microsoft.

Many Yahoo services more reliable than Microsoft. For example, Yahoo Messenger has many users and more user friendly than MSN.

I hope, if Ms really acquire Yahoo, they won't destroy all Yahoo's services.
