They appear to have conceeded defeat in their own search efforts and now want to take over the search market with Yahoo. Google still gives by far the most refers to my site, although interestingly MSN searches consistantly give a lower bounce rate than Yahoo Traffic. Google is of course the best!

The Microsoft ad center software is SO much better than Yahoo or Google - but because it doesn't have the reach it often isn't worth the trouble. This merger will make a stronger competitor to Google (good) and make room for innovative entrepreneurs (also good).

Microsoft is known for persistence, that's how they win against originality and genius. It does seem like there will be a merger.

From an economics point of view, if it happens, Microsoft may just launch an attack against Google and use Yahoo as a casualty. This, in blogging terms, is a good thing for bloggers because it will cause ridiculously low advertising on the part of Yahoo. Should be a good opportunity to snag some growth ;) Its looking more likely every day that the merge will happen.
