Yahoo and Google Ad Deal Falls Through

All right. I'll admit I'm a little late on reporting this news, especially considering I live in the heart of Silicon Valley, but here goes. Last week, the much publicized ad partnership between Google and Yahoo fell apart under the watchful eye of the U.S. Justice Department. Apparently the government didn't want the Big G to form a monopoly on search advertising.


The collapsed deal has led many to speculate that Microsoft may soon be back in the driving seat for a Yahoo partnership. If this happens, it could be big news for both companies who are trying to assert themselves in unfriendly economic climate. Don't worry about Google though, I'm sure they'll still find a way to take over the world keep business rolling.
