The big news story of the last few days in the technology world has to be Microsoft’s bid on Yahoo!
While there has been a lot said about the possible outcome and longterm effects of such a merger / takeover a lot of people were probably waiting to see what Google would say and do.
Google have now released a statement of sorts on one of their corporate blogs and it is amusing to say the least. I just hope to God that people don’t swallow it!
The piece goes on and on about openness and innovation and all these other buzzwords.
Google aren’t exactly open and a lot of the criticism that has been used against Microsoft in the past is now being used to describe Google.
Do they think we’re all a bit dumb?

EDIT: Paul Walsh and I seem to agree on this one: Google Throws Its Toys Out of The Pram
