Microsoft got Googled. The term Googled now has the added meaning of cuckolded.
What happened on Friday was that Yahoo explained to the potential
groom, Microsoft, that Yahoo was serious about having Google generate
all of its word-matching advertising and share the revenue when the
site of the ad was on Yahoo. (Metaphorically getting pregnant with
Google's child).
The only real value Yahoo offered to Microsoft before the proposed
marriage was called off was the (virgin) Yahoo word search and ad match capability.
The jilted groom, the marriage being called off, told investors that
Yahoo was only valuable for its word-search-ad sex appeal. That was
also the reason that Yahoo and Google on Friday had the same
price-earning value (40-1); making the two companies worth the same
amount in investor's eyes. Investors saw the future of Yahoo and that
future is for Yahoo to be caring Google's child.
