As a Y! employee for a couple of years - although my time was brief, I can say with confidence that had Yahoo successfully acquired Google or Facebook, both would have been destroyed in short order.

Yes, but that just makes me wish it had happened...

Wish they’d been bought by MS, probably would have sidelined them. Was a really bad deal from memory.

Nobody can beat Yahoo in making bad deals. Lets not forget they made Mark Cuban a billionaire with a legendary Broadcast.com acquisition at $10K per user! $5.7 billion dollars written off in less than two years.
