[…] I haven’t changed my position one iota from my post in December 2006 offering 10 reasons Microsoft will *not* acquire Yahoo in 2007, one reason they might. The only reason they should buy Yahoo is an offensive move to keep Yahoo out of Google’s clutches (and yes, disclaimer time: I still own Google stock too).

[…] On the topic of Google, do you think Microsoft will acquire Yahoo next year? I really hope they don’t. But the way Yahoo! has been doing lately, it does seem possible. And Microsoft has already tried once this year. What do you think? […]

[…] Broken digg images everywhere during update Curious sidenote: when Digg went down to implement this new site version they broke their digg count image for every third party site, including this one, which can be seen clearly in the image featured in my last post. I wonder why they didn’t at least use that image space to produce a static image to return during the update? […]
