Microsoft Yahoo Deal Still In The Works

Frankly I am not all that sure why Yahoo is in Microsoft’s sights any longer. Clearly, it cannot be for their search functionality, be it something that Yahoo does still have some of the market on.
No, it must be a content thing. News, ads, personals, creepy chat rooms. This is what Microsoft is buying? Yes, as Yahoo is still quite the portal to watch from a traffic perspective. So if MS is after eyeballs, I can see Yahoo being fairly appealing.
But what has me stumped is that I could have sworn this is what MS was trying to do with MSN all along? So are they simply going to buy their way out of that failure, too? It’s beginning to look that way to me. Well that and Yahoo search is not only bigger than Live Search, but Bing is still to young to be of any real threat.
