The big news this morning is that Microsoft is looking to acquire Yahoo for $50 billion. Over at Search Engine Land, Danny also covers the possible merger.

Ironically, DigitalPoint members are hoping that this ends the the Google search monopoly:

Thats a good news.. Thats another way to remove Google's monopoly..

But on WebmasterWorld, they think that Google will only get ahead:

great news for google

What about rankings? Whose search engine will take over?

I think the deal would be bad, some of us rank good in one search engine, and poorly in the other

That's a really good point.

Forum discussion at WebmasterWorld and DigitalPoint.
