Last week, we saw two important acquisitions:

Adobe completed the acquisitions of Macromedia in an all-stock transaction valued at approximately $3.4 billion. Macromedia shareholders received 1.38 of Adobe shares for each share they owned.

Another interesting acquisition was the acquisition of Del.icio.us, the bookmarking web site, by Yahoo!, inc. I have heard they have plans to integrate del.icio.us with flickr, which they bought last year. Also, from what I have heard, a large number of the users of both systems, Flickr and Del.iscio.us, are not happy with the acquisition news.

For now, see http://bookmarks.yahoo.com.
