Yahoo- Microsoft deal less than 24 hours to go

Long awaited and one of the exciting merger in the information technology will have a showdown in next 24 hours. It would be interesting to see how this text base search advertising giants (not literally the giant since Google eats up more of the market share) settle on agreement. In the search market Microsoft has market share of 8%, Yahoo search contributes 20% and Google off course sweeps rest of 65%. This deal might give life to Bing, Microsoft's new born search engine since agreement may have using Bing on the Yahoo sites. For us it's interesting to watch how this companies drives internet marketing and advertising market in next coming years. Google needs be aware.
