Microsoft-eBay team: Doomsday for Google.

First, I would like to apologize for my late Blogsite updates, I admit I ‘m late and quiet busy doing something, but now the author is back in business. Now let’s get back to work, what’s new now? Microsoft in headline, the Redmond based Software Company, Microsoft has dramatically changed direction, and the company has been rumored in merger talks with eBay. What! Microsoft is considering buying eBay and merging it. Well, Microsoft got tons of money and anything are possible, Microsoft could acquire almost any web companies it wants but not Google, it’s not rich enough to bid for Google. The e-commerce powerhouse eBay could be the next target here, Microsoft got plans to integrate eBay to its MSN Division and take on Google. Maybe this one is part of Microsoft big web strategy to fight Google; Microsoft has already acquired European price comparison website ciao.com for about $ 486 M. I think Microsoft is doing a creative works here, the ciao.com acquisition is done to boost Microsoft e-shopping search and push the software company to e-commerce field, Google got its own Froogle, a comparison site, if Microsoft succeed in buying eBay, the software company will gained control of all eBay properties, and that’s sounds trouble for Google, eBay got Paypal, the dominant online payment system, a tough competitor to Google’s Checkout. eBay also got net powerhouse Skype, which got technology that could be used and integrate in Microsoft instant messaging. For years eBay has positioned itself to be a global and giant, it is an online clearinghouse for most of the world’s top manufacturers and retailers, it is an online have for buyers and sellers, eBay‘s market muscle has scared online giants such as Google. For Microsoft eBay acquisition could be a “sure bet”, eBay dominate e-commerce market. Well the two companies occupy different corner of the web. The two got vastly different focuses, both got good technologies. If the merger works the right way( I’m talking about the Microsoft’s Way) then Google were in deep trouble here, the search company must prepare for future web fight , a new war is about to emerge something big, Microsoft will do anything in its power to beat Google.
