Microsoft buys aQuantive

The New York Times captures the highlights of the acquisition. Adweek has a nice interview with Brian McAndrews, the CEO of aQuantive. Mary Jo Foley over at ZDNet highlights Microsoft’s view on the purchase by quoting Steve Berkowitz. And finally, check out Microsoft Watch’s perspective if you want another take.
