Yahoo! will ditch Google as its main search engine "perhaps as early as the first quarter", the WSJ reports. The paper's sources are unnamed marketing outfits who says they have been briefed on the switch by Yahoo!

This will come as little surprise to anyone. The only question was when the contractual agreements between the two companies would end..."

I believe that Yahoo have already started to roll out some Inktomi results on limited IP bands. I've spoken to various people in Europe who are seeing Inktomi results served on a limited basis.

Looks like they will slowly roll out the change over the next few months.
