This is the saddest moment of this year so far. Microsoft is going to buy Yahoo for $44.6 billion. What can be more unexciting and bogus than this that the software giant is going to piss off another great web service. When they acquired Hotmail quite sometime ago, I knew that this was the end of the best mail service of that time. I consequently moved to yahoo mail. Now that MS again wants to ruin another great service, I am like lost in the desert, not knowing where to switch now.

When next time I open my Yahoo mail account, I don’t want to see “Your Browser Does not support Yahoo Mail, Use IE7″. Or when I try to upload pictures to my Flickr account, it will say, “We don’t Support Linux, use Windows”. Why can’t Microsoft leave everybody alone. If they think that they, when merging Yahoo with them, can give google a tough competition, then they are wrong. Heads up for google here, they are much ahead than both of them together.
