Yahoo might be bought by mainland Chinese?

The dude behind Alibaba might be the leading a group to buy Yahoo. Interesting development. I wonder if they would be smart enough to monetize the areas that are making tons of money off 3rd party affiliate marketers off yahoo traffic.

The former English schoolteacher later added that, were he to have his way, he would be eager to acquire all of Yahoo, not just the stake it owns in Alibaba.

"The whole piece of Yahoo," Ma said in answer to a question from the audience about what part of Yahoo he was interested in. "China is already ours, right? It's already in my pocket."

Yahoo shares leaped 5 percent to $13.80 in after-hours trading.

Acquiring Yahoo could help Ma expand his online empire into one of the world's most important Internet markets.

True. Excellent work on rebuffing the Microsoft offer. Apparently, Yahoo execs were highfiving each other

I'd buy Yahoo and make it a porn site and compete with Porn.com and their free shit. Bet money I'd win the game.

Alibaba has a pretty bad rep. I doubt they will be allowed to buy it.

Fitting that the worlds largest scam site is going to buy the worlds most inept search engine. Can't wait to see what they have in mind to increase Yahoo's revenues. Haha.. oh my fucking god!
