Are Apple and Yahoo! Taking Their Relationship to the Next Level?
A recent Wall Street Journal article suggests that Apple and Yahoo! are in talks to integrate Yahoo! content and services to a greater degree.

New CEO Marissa Mayer has made progress focusing on Yahoo!'s mobile strategy, and scoring a deeper partnership with Apple would be a big win. Meanwhile, Apple continues to reduce Google's integrated presence in iOS, most notably with Maps, although Google's services are still available as third-party apps.
