Yahoo!'s White Knight

Yahoo! looking to News Corp to block Microsoft's bid. All 3 of these are terrible companies. News Corp is Rupert Murdock. Enough said there. I'm pretty firmly in the Mac camp. And I don't even know what the hell Yahoo! does anymore. What is this? It just looks like some annoying pop-up window. Is that their whole business?

Yahoo owns Flickr, which is pretty respectable. And they're #2—a distant #2—in search engine popularity.

Outside of that, I have no idea.

I can't believe how much money these companies are valued at. I guess Flickr is respected, but still, do any of these companies have any real ideas on how to generate profits?

All I know about Yahoo! is that they keep trying to get into the content part of the business, and keep failing at it. I guess News Corp will be the next sucker for this.
