It was announced yesterday that Yahoo has done a deal with Match.com and has decided to close up shop with the once huge, Yahoo Personals. What I find interesting is that eHarmony did a deal with Yahoo in Australia last year. I wonder how long it will take for this deal/relationship to dissolve?

Old Yahoo personals account holders will be asked to merge their accounts to Match.com. It will be interesting to see how long this will take to come together and if there will be any fallout. Match is on a bit of a tear after acquiring singlesnet.com and niche dating service People Media last year.

The internet dating world is playing musical chairs once again, let us know what you think is the next big merger in the comments.
