Microsoft's deal with Yahoo under which the software maker's new Bing search engine will be used to power Yahoo searches and Yahoo will sell premium advertising for both companies could be expanded overseas, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer said Thursday.
"It's possible we would extend that partnership outside of the U.S. but we'll have to wait and see until we actually are able to get approval and consummate our partnership with Yahoo inside the U.S. and perhaps there'll be news on that some other day," he told a Tokyo news conference after being asked if a similar deal would happen in Japan.
