What do you think it will mean? What will happen if both of them do merge?

[pete101]

Not much of a future left for AOL but even with their dwindling user base they still have a pretty good number of users.

In order for Yahoo to make up any ground on Google, I think this is a must do for them!

If I were Yahoo, I would push this deal through fast and also pursue partnerships with companies like the Opera browser, myspace and a few others.

I wouldnt suggest going with aol because it is dying fast.

Even though this will never happen, (AOL and Google are as tight as super glue) is think it would be a good deal. They both really have the same goal in terms of user services and such. This can seen with the way their home pages so closely match each other.

Thank you

Yahoo deffinately needs to start getting some big time relationships going to make up ground on Google.

Does anyone know if they are working any other partneships?

It is survival of the fittest. Merging is one way to survive. Holy alliance is what is commonly happening. We see Yahoo forging a tie up with Microsoft, Google with Firefox. Merging of AOL and Yahoo is a possibility.

i don’t think it will happen, and i don't think it would benefit yahoo if they did anyway. Aol has nothing much to offer.

[Disguised]

well if merging will help yahoo in anyway they you will probably see that coming, though i dont think it will.

[King]

for what reason would yahoo want to merge with aol? i dont think it would be happening, yahoo wont gain anything from it.

Perhaps if these two companies merge, it can turn to something huge. The Yahoo network is already huge and adding AOL to it will definitely be a plus.
