Yahoo shares fell more than 16 percent today as hopes for the once-dominant Internet icon dimmed following Microsoft’s withdrawal of a $47.5 billion takeover bid.

The sell-off wiped out nearly half the gain in Yahoo Inc.’s stock price since Microsoft made its initial offer on Jan. 31 in an effort to challenge online advertising and search leader Google. The downturn left Yahoo’s market value about $14 billion below Microsoft’s last offer.

Last-ditch talks between Yahoo and Microsoft were fruitless, leading Microsoft to walk away from a deal Saturday.

In late-morning trading Monday, Yahoo shares shed $4.69, or 16.4 percent, to $23.98, below Friday’s close of $28.67, when investors were still hopeful about a deal.

Despite the backlash, analysts doubt Yahoo shares will fall back to their $19.18 pre-bid price, partly because some investors may still be holding out hope that the software maker will renew its takeover attempt if Yahoo continues to struggle.

Microsoft shares rose nearly 2 percent, or 57 cents, to $29.81. The shares had declined 10 percent to $29.24 since the bid, reflecting concerns that the proposed marriage would turn into a complicated mess that would enable Google to grow even stronger. Now what’s next?

Let;s wait and see.

The reason for me to come up with this topic is because some I have been asked by my friends why I’ve got so many blogs. They don’t believe that I have more than 20 blogs.

Have you ever try to use a service from any recruitment advertising agency before?
Well actually I never try to use it before but I do really want to know how it works. Until I found this Recruitment Advertising Agency named Raa.co.uk, then I realize that theres’ many good things about them that I should share here with.

Actually, using a recruitment advertising agency is advantageous for all parties, the job seeker, the employer and the agency itself. Simply said, online recruitment agencies are used by employers for many purposes. Not only it’s an effective way to find a job, and for employers to fill worker positions, but it also can conceal recruitment activities from competitors, recruit for a new type of post for which they have no expertise.

You know what, if you are a job seeker who wants to find a suitable job and has special interests and goals, then I think this wil be a good option for you. You even can supply a job description to the recruitment agency and the agency can filter through data bases of job seekers to find the perfect candidates. Good luck!

All of us know how good online shopping is. At the click of a mouse, everything reaches us without spending too many hours on the streets. As it stated above, it’s all on our fingers. Selecting and purchasing products online has never been easier. All you have to do is click, click, click and more clicks. As for myself online shopping is more diverse since the market is global and not local. Not only that, prices also is one of the main element for me to shop online because sometimes, we can get a better bargain since the products might be sold by individuals or auctions.

Online Shopping also has many advantages, especially if you are shopping for family and friends who are far away. You even can check the low prices compared with others site. Just use the drop down menu or find a link to the discount or best rate logo so that you know how to buy it under normal price. In fact, the time and money that you will save by shopping on the internet is quite significant compared to the local shopping mall.

Internet user also can get more selection and more info about the stuff that they want to buy. Most people can generally find what they are looking for online just as easy if not easier than finding it at the local department store. Believe it or not, sometimes you can save up to 50% or more on selected items based on the season. Depending where you shop online, you may also find huge savings on shipping and delivery. But one tips from me, before you buy anywhere, check the privacy policy and other terms and conditions pertaining to the purchase.
