Microsoft Bids $44.6 Billion for Yahoo
Wow. I think we saw it coming, but it still seems unbelievable now that it’s here. At a 62 percent premium over their stick price, and with the trouble Yahoo has been in of late, I can’t imagine that they’ll turn it down.
This would also mean that del.icio.us and Flickr will become Microsoft properties. I thought about exporting my links when Yahoo acquired del.icio.us, but now might be the time (using a .NET Passport Windows Live ID just feels icky).
