Maybe this explains them shutting down SBCentral so they can just take over Yahoo! Directory.

Hopefully they will lower the price to $49.95 if they acquire Yahoo!

I've got some news from here: Microsoft Buying Yahoo: Rumors Reappear | WebProNews

A year ago, the two companies were reportedly in talks about a merger, but those conversations were dismissed as rumors and speculation. Well, here's Microsoft and Yahoo 2.0.

A pairing in the spirit of a superhero teamup could happen if the latest chatter about Yahoo and Microsoft proves true. Once again, a potential merger is being considered, as neither company has made gains against Google's search and advertising dominance.

The Wall Street Journal said last year's talks have become this year's discussions. Both Yahoo and Microsoft have been rejiggering their online advertising products, but have not been able to eat into Google's lead.

"Short of a wholesale merger, Microsoft could spin its online group into a separately-run Yahoo, in return for a Yahoo stake," the WSJ said. "Though a person familiar with the matter says
Microsoft would likely want to acquire Yahoo."

Get more news in the link above.
