    Yahoo (YHOO -0.5%) and Facebook (FB -0.5%) have reportedly settled their patent feud. Sources claim the settlement features a cross-licensing deal, will result in no cash payments, and will include an expansion of the companies' existing ad/content partnership. A joint ad sales effort will be launched, and Yahoo will be the first partner to include info about Facebook users' "Likes" in its display ads. Such a deal could help Ross Levinsohn's bid to become permanent CEO. (previous)

  • Since we own both Yahoo and Facebook in our speculative growth portfolios this is very good news. If these type companies would learn to work together they both can make a lot more money.
