I don't see the big M$ attempting to innovate like this

Yahoo's recent openness binge is so strategically opposite to Microsoft that I wonder if they aren't doing this in part to impede the takeover, or as a sort of post-takeover insurance.

A soon-to-be-ex-colleague wrote a good piece on this recently.
