The Microsoft - Yahoo Match Continues

To be honest, I was hoping the Microsoft - Yahoo deal to be over. Well, I wasn't right. OK, so Yahoo rejected the bid, Microsoft said they won't increase their offer, but everyone was sure there may be other ways for them to get in control of the Internet search giant which doesn't seem to be in a perfect position. Now, Microsoft expresses optimism over this matter. So... where's the truth, after all?


Speaking at a press conference in Tokyo, Microsoft's senior vice president Jean-Philippe Courtois, said "We continue to have a very close dialogue with Yahoo's shareholders (and) Yahoo's management.", but I guess they're having a closer relashion with Yahoo's shareholders now. The fact that, after rejecting Microsoft's bid, Yahoo ended up with several lawsuits started by its shareholders who weren't happy with the decision doesn't have anything to do with Microsoft, I guess, but this may show them the way to follow, if they want to take over Yahoo.

Now, we should see what happens next, because I have a pretty bad feeling about this story. Although Microsoft may never get its hands on Yahoo, we will hear about this deal a few times to many in the coming months, at least until Yahoo decides to forge a solid alliance with... someone, I can't really tell who's going to be the "winner"...
