Microsoft, Yahoo chiefs meet

SEATTLE - The chief executives of Microsoft Corp. and Yahoo Inc. met recently to discuss possible business deals, news reports said Friday.
Under one possible scenario, Microsoft would sell Yahoo's search ads while Yahoo would manage Microsoft's display ads.
The meeting marks one of the most significant moves toward a new deal since Yahoo walked away from Microsoft's unsolicited $47.5 billion buyout offer last year.

TIS EASTER SUNDAY and it seems Microsoft is commemorating the resurrection with a little resurrecting of its own, dragging us away from our chocolate egg hunt with snooze, er, news that its talks with Yahoo are back on again.

After restraining himself from any talk of MicroHoo!! for the duration of Lent, Ballmer purportedly cracked like an Easter egg and met with Yahoo's new chief executive Carol Bartz face to face last week.

This time, however, it's not about a sell-out for some 30 pieces of silver, oh no. This time it's all about "partnership" involving various search and advertising opportunities according to the gospel from "a variety of sources" at Digital Daily.

Sceptics and non believers may have a hard time accepting that such a deal may indeed come to pass, especially since all logical proof points towards Microsoft forging ahead with its Kumo search plan.
