Microsoft offered to buy Yahoo! today.
Even if the deal goes through, I don’t see them overtaking Google. The Microsoftization of popular Web 2.0 properties such as Flickr and Delicious might even cause a mass exodus to Google’s corresponding services, such as Picasaweb.
Update: Yahoo rejected the offer. A collective sigh of relief was felt across the Internet.
