Yeah I heard rumors about this a few days ago in various 'techie' sites. There is also a recent rumor that MS is looking to buy Yahoo. If true, it means they are more worried about Google then they have suggested.
 
Does anyone still use MSN?? :lol:
But if Microsoft buys Yahoo, then Google may have something to worry about.
Yahoo really isn't that bad, and I see more and more spam results in Google now and their index has been quite unstable lately with sites dropping in and out every second day etc...
