Why Google might be part of a group bidding for Yahoo

There was this long article about why Google might be bidding for Yahoo

Wonder if the authors thought that Google might just want to bid up the price to squeeze more dollars out of MS or whoever actually buys it?

An unfortunate, but true statement.....

Great post http://theunderstatement.com/post/11982112928/android-orphans-visualizing-a-sad-history-of-support

Talks about how manufacturers don't support their Android phones much past the OS they release with. It needs people to root their phone and run something like CyanogenMod to get to the current OS....

Why don't manufacturers focus on making great hardware and just run stock Android? I am sure Motorola will start doing so once they get acquired by Google. How long is it going to take the others to understand that we buy their phones because of the hardware performance/features they can provide - not their silly UI modifications....
