Yahoo!, Facebook in talks over possible alliance
- USA: Tuesday, November 20 - 2012 at 02:39
The chief executive of Yahoo!, Marissa Mayer, has held discussions with Sheryl Sandberg, Facebook's chief operating officer over how the two companies can work more closely together, The Telegraph has reported, citing unnamed sources. Analysts said a collaboration deal would prove beneficial to both firms, as Facebook already said it plans to boost its web search facility, with founder Mark Zuckerberg noting that the social network is "pretty uniquely positioned to answer the questions people have." Moreover, Yahoo!, which started life as one the first major search engines but is now dwarfed by rival Google, would benefit from Facebook's vast army of more than one billion users.
