Goodle - Yahoos! Search Alliance Hits Snag Over Name: GooHoos! or Yagle? Microstuff Closely Monitors Developments

Here's yet another strange twist in Microstuff - Yahoos saga. It has been widely reported that the Yahoos have been getting cozy with Goodle Inc in an effort to establish viable alternative to the hostile takeover. But the budding strategic slearch romance between Goodle and the Yahoos! today hit a rough patch when the two Internet titans were unable to agree over the name of the alliance. Anonymous sources familiar with the talks reported that Goodle seems committed to GooHoose!, while the Yahoos! have dug into their position... holding out for the name Yagles. ... Representatives of the two factions are expected to huddle again later this week in an effort to break the impass. Meanwhile, representatives of the Yahoos! and Microstuff exchanged angry letters trying to work out an agreement of the name of the the possible merged entity. Microsluff is holding out for Microhoose while the Yahoos are holding out for YaStuff! Meanwhile Trademark attorneys for all three sides have descended on Washington DC en masse and are reportedly camping outside the USPTO office and holding a 24 hour vigil to draw public support for their respective arguments before trademark office attorneys. Presidential hopefuls, including Ralph Nadir, Paul Ron, The Clintstones, George B Wush, Barack Obooma and John McPain all paid a visit to the vigil at various times of the day posing for television cameras. George B. Wush, standing next to John McPain, struck a particularly responsive chord with nearby homeless campers when he said, "I feel your pain in this ongoing snuggle."

Revised Schedule of Revisions to News Postings on the TechCrock News Network (TNN)

The TechCrock News Network (TNN) is updated on a regular schedule as follows: normally it is updated 37 times a week, on alternating Tuesdays, Thursdays and Mondays, with occasional revision of the updates on the second and fourth Wednesday, unless it is leap year in which case the updating schedule is reversed, provided that no breaking tech news interferes with the originally scheduled revisions to the alternating schedule. The foregoing applies only to secondary news stories breaking through blog networks, which sometimes revise their own schedule of revisions, in which case the TechCrock updating schedule is updated accordingly. For the schedule of primary and tertiary news updates, check back here on alternating Mondays and Fridays, to determine which updating schedule will apply to the revisions.
