I cringe at the thought of hearing a radio ad along the lines of "You've got flickr in your myspace/You've got myspace in your flickr.", like it's a good thing.


+1. The ridiculous string of names that you could get from any of the possible mergers is definitely weird.

AOL -"Bebo", "TMZ", "Truveo",

YAHOO - "Del.icio.us", "Yahoo", "Flickr", "OneSearch", "alibaba"

News Corp - "Myspace", "Sky", "FX"

Microsoft - Actually, most of these sound semi normal. However, the fact that I also cant think of any of their brands is an entirely different problem.
