Rupert Murdoch Tries to Trade Magic Beans for Yahoo

Okay let's call a spade a spade. Myspace? This company is like a firework in full explosion who's heart and soul is going to be gone within 5 years as its users leave for cooler Myspaces like Facebook.. And don't rush out and buy Facebook because within 5 years the software, people-power and talent that built Facebook will be on sale at the sundries store in the lobby of my hotel at Disneyland next to the sunscreen, below the disposable cameras.

Does nobody see what I'm seeing here? Look around! Development is getting faster, better and cheaper (India, China, Russia, Brazil).. Users are getting pickier, smarter and more fickle (Younger, Hipper, Shorter Atentions, Bigger Wallets, More Demanding).

If Jerry Yang considers this deal for even ten seconds he'd be crazy. MySpace for 25% of Yahoo is insulting. Jerry can do better and Rupert is not as smart as I previously thought he was.. offering 5 billion for the light from a dead star and now this.. get Lachlan in the Captains chair Rupe.

NB
To my aquaintances at Goldman, Morgan, etc.. I understand that it's cool to own an asset like the WSJ so you can manipulate the equity markets through media and move stock prices, and that you can make a lot of money doing that, but as a media buy (pure-play media) the WSJ deal blows and the publication is quickly loosing its cache' (ability to move stock prices) with the next-generation of investors who look outside of bubblevision for real market moving data.
