Kiss your Yahoo goodbye...

So there was going to be a big stink over Google supplying ads on Yahoo's sites, and Yahoo taking a bit of the cut. This deal was going to give a ton of money to Yahoo, who's been in really bad shape ever since they fought off Microsoft's huge buzzard talons.

In any case, people threw up antitrust complaints about the issue and Google did something I've never seen a huge tech company do before; They said, "Screw you guys, I'm going home."

Google just took back the rope that they threw to save Yahoo, and added a little bit of a knife in the back. An article on the BBC website had some great quotes, including...

"That would be like trying to drive down the road of innovation with the parking brake on," Google, on being in a legal battle over Yahoo ads.

"If somebody is building a coffin for Yahoo, they can go to Google to pick up some nails "
