Marcelo SantMarcelo Sant'Iago reports that Google adds two big players to its network in Brazil.
This happened as UOL (#1 ISP and top 5 web destination) and Buscapé (#1 comparison shopping website in Brazil and latin America) have given the boot to Yahoo.
“Google now has partnerships with all major brazilian horizontal portals, but Yahoo and MSN: iG, UOL and Terra are part of search and content network; Globo.com ( webdestination owned by Globo TV ) has a deal with YouTube (which by the way now has a portuguese version) to provide video content.â€
Besides, Google-owned social networking site Orkut (pronounced "or-KOO-chee," in Portugese) is a favorite amongst Brazilians with over 11 million (out of a total of 15 million) Orkut users living in Brazil as the NY Times reported.
Google's popularity and stronghold shows considerable growth while poor Yahoo! Is struggling to cope.
