Yahoo! Buying Facebook

[LiNuX]

There have been a few rumors around the internet about Yahoo! Trying to buy the popular social networking site called FaceBook populated by many college students. Offers have been made but no news has been published officially.

Just wanted to know if anyone else heard anything about this? Google could retaliate by making a bigger offer. Why? Because they can :)

I hope they wil as well , Google pwns Yahoo in like every way except fantasy sports , Google please start fantasy sports next year then I wont have to go to Yahoo but once a month and Google makes your news section better then Yahoo will be dead in the water , Yeah google isnt afraid of spending movie look at Youtube for 1.65 billion thats just insane and they did it just to corner the online video market
