    Google devours YouTube

    Posted on 09 October 2006

    And just like that, Google purchases Youtube for $1.65 Billion

    +

    = Confirmed

    That’s right, the Yoogle (or Gootube) transition is complete.

    What can we expect now?

    Well, for starters, the largest web company in the world with the highest valued stock in the world now owns the largest (growing) library of online videos in the world. Besides this, I think that Google’s first step will probably be to revamp the site in order to sync video functions with their other services e.g. Gmail. I’m curious to see what the company will do with their Google Video service, kill it?

    Congratulations YouTube!
    Who’s the next prey….
