Well, this is actually the most exciting news in awhile. Microsoft has (once again) made Yahoo a $45B offer to allow Microsoft to swallow them whole. Makes me wonder what will (would) happen to Flickr and Del.icio.us... Will MS push too hard to monetize these communities? And end up destroying them? But what's most exciting here, is the prospect of a merging-of-the-names (YahSoft? MicroHoo?) How about a Jon Squire-esque anagram of names* to usher in the rebirth? The Internet Anagram Server has served up a few good ones:
- Airy Foot Smooch
- root/fiasco/oh my!
- it's coma for yo ho
- Oh, I moo coy farts
...and although it's not using all the letters, I think the best name for this monster is MacroFist.
*John Squire was the former guitarist of the band The Stone Roses, and upon the bands tumultuous break-up, started another band, The Seahorses, rumored to be an anagram of "He Hates Roses"
