This is one of those perennial murmurs through the IT community, it seems: who/what is going to buy AOL, and what is the damage going to be?
As an ex-AOL’er, this is always a fun thread to follow, across the blogosphere and even as bleed-through to traditional media.
Today, CNBC is repeating a Reuters article that mentions that, yes, AOL and Yahoo are still talking about a possible merger (or buyout), but nothing is definite.
And, for a bit of a contrasting commentary: just yesterday, the guys at SAI had a quickie post about why it seems that nothing will come of the negotiations.
