That does sound a bit unlikely...when buying a company that you want to be profitable, then you have to put your nose deep-in that companies butt, and it could take a while to do that, then you got buy out protocols, and such, and if some chance they are buying 1 company per week, then they have probably already been into buying that company for some while. Rome was though to be the biggest empire of all time, and it was for a long time, until it fell because of greed/power...
Google really has a perfect eco-system: Android, Youtube, Adwork, Phone, Gmail, blogspot, etc.. that connect well with each other and cover almost everything in life. Really adore Larry and Sergey to build a such powerful empire from scratch. Not simply about technical stuffs, but their business mind and broad visibility.
I guess you need to do some research then, huh bud? Actually, I will do it for you! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mergers_and_acquisitions_by_Google http://gizmodo.com/5865908/google-buys-more-than-one-company-every-week http://techcrunch.com/2011/12/07/eric-schmidt-google-is-buying-one-company-a-week/ http://www.startupsmart.com.au/grow...pany-per-week-chairman-says/201112084806.html Likely?...or Unlikely? Holla!
Google is also investing in future of Artificial Intelligence and Robotics , read my thread : https://forums.digitalpoint.com/thr...igence-robotics-and-future-of-google.2706450/ who knows, may be singularity is close.
I heard that some group of people tried to reach god by building a tower to reach heaven.... (I think we all know how that turned out...)
Welll, I did say unlikely, if i thought i knew the facts for sure then I would have said yes or no. even so, even I wouldnt buy last min decision, so I take it that google has a buy team dedicated in buy other companies, and that means they are constantly researching, and doing proper research, and making offers can take time, but if they offered me a billion dollars, it wouldnt take me a lot time to sell
True that! I will take $1,000,000,000 as well... BTW, how much you charge for 500 word articles? I see you "REALLY" liked the video too... Holla!
All their latest acquisitions point exactly to their future expansion in the Robotics business. I would personally wait for them to release a little robot who can perform my web searches with a voice command, WHILE making me pancakes...then I can start to be impressed
Google control nobody and it will never control the planet you r just got yourself over the sound og how big the company is! But there still some big bad ass monster propreties that you just don't know about, maybe because they don't interest you
I think google is gearing up for large government contracts. Much of the projected research for future war machines is robotics in the future robots will probably control tanks, aircraft, drones and other war devices. Communications is huge for governments if you control the media you control the population, through propaganda and these days through surveillance. Most people don't realize that they are probably being gps recorded everywhere they carry their smart phone, all phone calls all text messages, all internet activity is tracked as long as you have gmail open in a browser. This kind of info is huge to law enforcement and other government goons. Just between war machines and communications that could equal billions and billions in government contracts.
