it’s all news

03/02/2008

In the last 24 hours, the US media has shifted it’s focus from it’s staples: Britney Spears, Barack vs Hilary, the War in Iraq, the recession to the very public Microsoft-Yahoo! courtship.

You know when it’s all over the news when:

  • You get half a dozen concerned have you any more Yahoo! stock left? calls
  • You turn on the radio on the drive to dinner, and while deciding where to go, you hear “acquisition”, “Microsoft”, “Yahoo!” drift over the AM waves
  • Perez Hilton blogs about it
  • It’s on Valleywag at the rate Britney Spears is on Perez Hilton
  • There’s a mention of the deal on the front page of every major internet news source (I’m not even checking print)

Moo! forever!!
