If Yahoo accepts Microsoft's offer to buy it, will you close your Yahoo account?worms
My email is a paid account that i use for the extra options, I don't want to lose it. The value that yahoo has is its search engine and user base, if Microsoft buys yahoo, hopefully they are smart enough to not get users mad enough to leave.
Whether to sell yahoo is a tough decision, yahoo is still making a profit but looks like the stock value is approaching 2003 levels which is bad. The economy is also not that good so many companies are having problems. It is sad to see the yahoo employees go to work after the announcement of planned reductions, they still seem upbeat though, it will be different now that microsoft made an offer.
I won't close my account... And I doubt Yahoo! users will notice much of a difference. The folks who'll probably suffer or benefit the most will likely be (a) Yahoo! employees and (b) any companies who've got marketing contracts with Yahoo!...
My inner conspiracy theorist can't help but wonder when Microsoft's hunger for power and world domination will be satiated. Microsoft comes off a bit of a monster to me.
