As the online industry's mergers and acquisitions craze swings into high-gear, a rumor has surfaced involving Facebook and Yahoo!, according to a report on The Guardian's blog.
According to the Guardian, Yahoo has reportedly offered Facebook $1.65 billion.
Kara Swisher of All Things Digital offered her own insight into the rumor.
"Hey, rumormongers out there, listen up: This is just not going to happen, as Facebook has just launched a new and possibly promising initiative to broaden its scope by bringing in third-party developers to offer widgets and services to its 22 million users," Swisher wrote.
Last month, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg said his team of programmers would work to make Facebook an open social network.
