Im kinda curious as to how they are going to work this out. From what I understand, Yahoo and Bing will still remain seperate, but Yahoo will we be marketing for Bing to increase its market share while keeping 80% of the ad revenue for the first 5 years. I know its a 10 year deal... but couldnt that open up the possibility that Bing may just end up hurting Yahoo?

I think its going to be a fierce battle and Google have really been off the ball over the last few months. (more interested in creating OS and phones)

So they may want to buckle their seat belts as Bing will also be using some of Yahoo's algo technology, and we all know that Yahoo know how to analyse links and citations a lot better then Bing

Personally I feel Google really need to buy Twitter and integrate real time results too and maybe use the buzz as a ranking factor
