Microsoft to Facebook: Care To Dance?

Microsoft has turned its amorous attention away from Yahoo!, directing a little love towards Facebook.

The Wall Street Journal is reporting that Microsoft's bankers put out subtle signals to Facebook, the social networking Web site, to see if it would be open to a full acquisition. Last October Microsoft agreed to buy a $240 million piece of the company in a transaction that values Facebook at $15 billion.

In the past, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg has resisted selling the entire company.
