    Bizarre happenings in the portal space. Yahoo acquires Oddpost which gives a desktop like user interface for web mail (which is exactly what GMail does) while Google acquires Picasa which offers photos sharing on the web, which is what Yahoo! Photos does! Over the last year, Yahoo! has increased its focus on providing better search while Google has explored areas like email, blogging etc. Are these two giants slowly moving closer and closer to each other? Will there ultimately be a difference between the two?
