Yahoo sues Xfire

[rudedog]

In a twist on the classic David and Goliath formula, Web giant Yahoo is suing Menlo Park, Calif., start-up Xfire for patent infringement.

The basis of the complaint, filed last week in a U.S. District Court in Northern California and served on Xfire representatives two days ago, alleges that Xfire is willfully infringing on a patent controlled by Yahoo.

Just read that story...how ridiculous....does Yahoo think they own everything with their name on it. Maybe they should take on Google for creating another Search Engine or M$oft for Messenger.

Funny thing is, if Xfire was not so popular, yahoo would not be doing this.
