Microsoft | Microsoft-Yahoo search-engine deal looks likely | Seattle Times Newspaper

Interesting times

After 18 months of playing footsie, Microsoft and Yahoo may finally be ready to announce a deal as early as today that would unite parts of the two companies.

It may not be the blockbuster merger that Microsoft wanted 18 months ago, but it likely involves a partnership that would allow the two companies to creep closer to search-engine giant Google.

Reports Tuesday from Advertising Age and The Wall Street Journal both say a search advertising and technology deal could be announced as early as today.
