A good thing

[edit]

Google desperately needs some competition. Their current market dominance is scary. --+Deprifry+ 20:35, 1 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

A very Good Thing

Maybe Microsoft will turn the shitty messenger service that Yahoo is into something a lot more stable and less prone to script kiddies. --71.232.227.162 21:22, 1 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

No Competition

[edit]

For some reason, I don't think Google is going to be faced with any real competition. Look at where we are now. Every search engine is pretty much copying Google's design as much as possible, which is why no one goes out of their way to use a search engine other than Google. Microsoft + Yahoo will be no more different that Live Search, in my naive opinion. --888gavin 04:13, 2 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
