Yahoo Wants To Buy Everyone, Tumblr Edition
The first rule of being cool is not telling people you want to be cool. Yahoo is not following this rule, with its M&A team in full pray-and-sprayacquisitionmode post-Marissa Mayer hire, hitting on everything that walks, or at least has traction.Deals I have heard rumors Yahoo was trying to get into over the past couple of months: Foursquare (at an $800 million asking price).
