I think that Google should put more effort toward making some of its existing products better. Merging with Yahoo just doesn’t sound like a good idea. It would probably be more of a hassle than it’s worth; not to mention Google is having such problems with acquiring DoubleClick.

Does anyone else think that Microsoft might end up with DoubleClick after all?

It would be nice to see Google and Microsoft get into a battle over Yahoo!

Just imagine what that would do to Yahoo’s share price.

If Google made a bid, you can bet dollars to donuts that Microsoft would jump into the mix.

If memory serves me, some time ago Google would not turn over users private search information to the U.S. Government when Yahoo and others did.

I believe todays issues with the the spolight on Google trying to buy DoubleClick is all because of this past lack of cooperation (which I applaud Google for doing).

Unfortunetly, it is pointless for Google to even spend a second on trying to buy Yahoo. The powers that be will make sure it is not going to happen.

Seems pretty silly to me … Google’s products are for the most part better and easier to use … Yahoo’s a dinasaur. Why waste money on merging with all that dead weight when you could spend it on your own technology and better marketing of your existing products.
