It seem Microsoft after walking away wants to buy a portion of yahoo, well this could be a good thing, but at the end of the day all they are trying to do is to compete with the best search engine out there which is Google, you must admit Google has come along way from been a University project and now is very much a trend setter especially with all the extra services Google offers and Microsoft wants to get into that action as it were and make more money well what company doesn’t. But i would rather have Yahoo independent as it will keep the web competitive otherwise we will end up with what’s happening on the Graphics card market which is ATI vs Nvidia, which is boring as there is only two competitors, two or more is better for the web i believe, but lets see what happens, hope Microsoft bottles it and walks away again.

Stage 6 to close, its a shame for it to go :(, read the statement from the stage 6 website:
I’m Tom (aka Spinner), a Stage6 user and an employee of DivX, Inc., the company behind the service. I’m writing this message today to inform you that we plan to shut down Stage6 on February 28, 2008. Upload functionality has already been turned off, and you’ll be able to view and download videos until Thursday.
