Google Must Die

It seems that Yahoo! (Nasdaq: YHOO) and Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) are speaking the same language. Last night, the two Internet juggernauts announced voice-chat interoperability between Yahoo! Messenger with Voice and Mr. Softy's Windows Live Messenger.
It's a pretty bold move, even if it's not entirely unexpected. The two bellwethers announced that users of one service would be able to text-chat with users of the other back in October. The new agreement adds voice-chat capabilities to that arrangement, creating a powerful community 350 million accounts strong, according to internal usage statistics. The companies announced that beta testing had begun last night, with widespread availability to follow in the coming months.
