While Google and Microsoft prepare quotes to purchase Digg (finally), AOL squandered their social news site Netscape .. er .. Propeller.  Yet, while AOL shows us that they have such fine acumen for anything but running an internet business, Yahoo! would rather have AOL kill them off than Microsoft absorb them.  I am no Microsoft fan, though recent internet offerings and courting of more open projects have taken the edge off, but courting a company that so lacks the ability to compete online seems just crazy.  I guess I need to get an MBA so stupid decisions will suddenly make perfect business sense to me.  Who knows, it might help me understand GM’s rebuilding strategy of producing fewer cars that no one wants to buy?
