Microsoft and Yahoo: Back On Again?

Friday, October 31st, 2008

According to tech journalist Kara Swisher, some members of Yahoo’s board of directors have renewed discussions with Microsoft about a possible sale of the company to Microsoft.

Such talks appear to be the result of the AOL-Yahoo merger talks making little progress, and fears that the Justice Department will block Yahoo’s proposed advertising deal with Google.
