And speaking of Yahoo!, Sean Suchter, the company's VP of search technology left last week, which wasn't a big surprise given the ongoing exodus of executives from that sinking ship. But this week, he turned up at Microsoft, turning some heads. He will become the general manager of Microsoft's Silicon Valley Search Technology Center, where he will work on Live Search beginning in late December. Maybe Microsoft can just buy Yahoo! Search. One employee at a time.
