First Yahoo messenger and MSN messenger joined networks. This was a reasona next step. yahoo is not completely worthless. In many parts of the world Yahoo dominates the IM market and in email Yahoo and Microsoft have a much bigger market share worldwide. yahoo also owns sites like Flickr and Delicious, both of which are better than their Google counterparts.

yahoo also has deals to provide email for many ISPs in the US.

I think Microsoft could benefit from the increased market share in many areas.
