Yahoo slashes 10% of workforce

Yahoo keeps slipping with the economic downturn and has plans to cut another 1500 jobs. Apparently they keep pursuing a deal with google and that is still in negotiations.

May be bad deal for those sites SEO savy in yahoo yet week in google

"Meanwhile, Google announced last week that its profits jumped a better-than-expected 26% in the third quarter. Google has continued to report strong growth despite the economic downturn thanks to its dominance in search advertising."

They should of merged with Microsoft.

Yahoo has more traffic then Google, they just can't make money off it. Say what you will about Microsoft, but they know how to make money.

Google announcing "strong" growth despite the economy due to search advertising... hmmm

Makes me wonder if were not so much in the wrong market despite a potential democratic party in office

Yahoo screw their advertisers.
The only good thing with a Yahoo and Google merger is that yahoo will start to give good results.
