Brin will work with Yahoo!

Google co-founder, Sergey Brin, has said that the search giant is still interested in developing a closer relationship with its nearest internet search rival Yahoo! Brin's comments follow the recent collapse of the merger between Yahoo! and Microsoft.

And only last month, Yahoo! began working with Google to trial its arch-rival's AdSense system on its own results pages.
Brin said that it had been good to work with Yahoo! again and that they had a very similar story to Google.

He added that the trials went very well and that the company would be very excited to work with Yahoo! again.

Nevertheless, the number two search player is back in talks with Microsoft- this time over a link-up in search advertising.

Google's power over the internet search market continues to remain an issue, with many concerned about the wealth of information the company has at its disposal about people's search habits.

Brin and Page have responded by saying that Google's revenue would soon dry up if they didn't guard their information about what users did online.

Page said that if Google was not trusted, it had no business and with such a lot to lose, it was forced to act in everyone's interest.
