What I (and many others) hope will be the biggest story of the year, the Microsoft takeover bid of Yahoo thus far is a big snoozefest. I really wished they would just kiss and make up and get on with acquisition details. I’m not a big user of Live, MSN, or Yahoo so I guess that is what excites me the most about the deal personally is to see what comes out of it an see if they can persuade me to leave Google Gmail and several other Google services I currently use every day.
Word on the digital street is Yahoo is looking for a deal (Microsoft or otherwise) but believes the current deal on the table undervalues their company but I’m unsure if it’s th eYahoo of today or tomorrow. Yahoo has given a projection of a major financial increases by 2010 mostly from a new online AD platform that isn’t even out currently and other promised technologies. It sounds to me like Yahoo is just buying time and playing games and stockholders need to step up to the plate if they expect to get their piece and lets get this thing rolling. If nobody else is stepping up to buy, it’s sounds like Microsoft has found the target or better market value to me.
Am I missing something here? What do you think about the deal?
