Tech as a soap opera

Posted on May 6th, 2008 by Jackie Danicki

If you follow my “recently read” list at left (subscribe to the list if you’re that interested), you’ll see I’ve been somewhat obsessed with the Microsoft/Yahoo drama that kicked into high gear over the weekend. I’m not proud, but I am still on the edge of my seat. If you’re outside the industry but want to get up to speed with the story, I just blogged an extremely top level summary of the last three days’ events.

    Its kind of funny, Yahoo has made a career out of over paying for companies, I guess they have an inflated sense of the value of things. It extended to themselves, they didn’t have an exact figure but they where sure they where worth more than that. How much did they walk away from, $14 billion over the market price.
    Whats a couple billion here or there, until the shareholder lawsuits start at least.

    Yahoo have been going bad for years, haven’t they. Glad you posted this, I would have missed it- nice one.
