Looking at it from Google's point of view, I think it actually makes sense. Beautifully put.

I hope that this deal does not get through.
People are afraid of the market-share in the search-market, when they should be afraid of the market-share in the advertising market. Thats where the money and the power is.

Here's hoping they just say no. Message to Google: Go back to innovating instead of "acquiring", it's what you do best.

I think one of the DOJ's biggest concern is that, although the deal wouldn't prevent Yahoo! from making similar deals with other companies, they wouldn't have much of an incentive to do so.

I think this deal is perfectly fine. It would be as if any other site were to use AdSense to provides it's advertising. That is if it's truly Yahoo adding google ads to it's pages.

However, it does seem a bit fishy.

If Google were to provide search technology and begin running their searches in addition to providing advertising, then I think the public should be weary of a monopoly.

But then again, I'm a GOOG shareholder, so I have a slanted opinion.

I wonder if Google will get the approval of the Dept. of Justice. Wish to see how this whole thing will work.

Andy, please keep informing us of this issue

First Microsoft, then Google? It seems to me that Yahoo is jumping from pillar to post too rapidly.Perhaps they are in more trouble than we are led to believe.

Will the ads say -- "Ads By Google" ? Or "powered by Google?"

I wonder how are they actually going to integrate the whole thing. They said, they will choose the 'keywords' -- Question is based on what? It cant be random, can it?
