Use Google or Yahoo Search Engine

The first step you should take when trying to find any information or service online is to use a reliable search engine and this particular step can also be followed when you’re looking for coupons to use with Yahoo services.

It can be almost impossible to give you a single coupon for all Yahoo products and services you want to use since there are different coupons for different products, but the good news is that there are various people online who have had success with one or more of these coupons, and as a result have listed it for others to use online.

A single Google search with “(name of product) coupon” will bring you endless streams of coupon sources. For example, searching for “Yahoo web hosting coupon” in Google or Yahoo will provide you with thousands of different sites to choose your coupon from. (more…)

As we know, both giant companies above are in different sectors. Microsoft is more specific on apps while Yahoo is more specific on internet. If Microsoft bought over Yahoo!, what will be the outcome?

Merge or Conflict?

Bookmarking: Delicious vs Listas

Ever heard of Listas? Thats it. Winner: Yahoo.

Instant Messaging: Yahoo Instant Messenger vs MSN Instant Messenger

Yahoo IM has a more flexible collection of interfaces to its platform, and has integrated into Yahoo! Mail. Winner: Yahoo.

So at last, is Microsoft take over Yahoo apps? Or the other way round?

My two cents

As a conclusion of mine, the $44.6 billions is an opportunity for Yahoo! but might be a threat for Microsoft. Anyway, from aspect of competing with the Google, Microsoft have make a good move to start its strategy monopoly the Internet world!
