WASHINGTON (AP) -- Google Inc. agreed to delay the start of a Web advertising partnership with rival Yahoo Inc., giving U.S. antitrust regulators more time to review the deal.
Under a plan announced in June, Google would provide advertising next to some of Yahoo's search results. The companies voluntarily held off for three months to give regulators time to assess whether the alliance will hurt competition.
I'm not sure if merging with Yahoo is in Google's best interest. I could understand merging with a company that could add value to your company, but not a rival company. If they are constantly competing with one another, how does that help their bottom line. I hope Google changes their mind about this deal, it's not a good look.
