Google error?
Interesting page on trying to search Google:

Apparently, Google thinks I’m a bad guy running an automated query. I get the same result from Firefox’s search box as at Google’s own home page.
Odd! Off to Yahoo!
Speculation ends on MSFT and YHOO
Gotta love the front page of Techmeme this morning:

Obviously, the speculation was continuing right up until the end.
Microsoft!
From Reuters via Information Week:
Yahoo (NSDQ: YHOO)’s second-biggest investor urged Microsoft (NSDQ: MSFT) to raise its $42 billion bid for the Web pioneer and warned Yahoo it has few options left, raising the pressure on them to seal a deal.
Isn’t it somewhat hard to argue both of those positions at the same time? Wouldn’t that almost be like talking out of both sides of your mouth?
You would think, huh …
