Well, they’ve finally gone and done it. Microsoft and Yahoo have partnered to "change the search landscape." The two companies today announced a long-awaited deal, in which Microsoft will power Yahoo search while Yahoo will become the exclusive search advertising provider for Microsoft’s search engine, Bing.
You know this history by now. Here’s what the companies have to say:
One YouTube user and one MySpace user will be attending the Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum in Davos-Klosters following online contests on both sites.The two "Citizen Reporters" will attend the conference and will report back by using MySpace and YouTube.
Unlike the iPhone, Google’s Android operating system hasn’t seemed to burst onto the scene with ten marching bands in tow. The "little bit here, little bit there" approach looks to be working pretty well, however, as MySpace and Imeem have announced a couple of new applications.
Online health sites Waterfront Media and Revolution Health Network have reached an agreement to merge and will pose a potential threat to WebMD’s top position in the health care category.
There are times when technology news can make you feel dumb; a sort of "slow down, I’ve never heard any of those terms before" feeling comes up. But in this instance, we’re placing the blame for any confusion on Google and Publicis; the two companies put out a short, vague press release, and seem to have scattered all relevant information to the winds.
Ah, rumors – they’re often difficult to report, never mind analyze. Yet here you are: Gregory Coleman, Yahoo’s executive vice president of global sales, may be replaced by Hilary Schneider. And this personnel move may be an example of favoritism among executives, or it could demonstrate how desperate Yahoo is to reverse a downward slide.
