    If you are serious to buy google shares than talk to some stock trader. He can give a far better suggestion of investing money as there can better shares to spend money on rather than google.

    Another $2 billion in cash. Add that to the $4 billion they have now and that's a pretty big war chest. I wonder who they plan on buying out?

    Facebook?

    This whole "Let's issue more shares because we can" is just a joke - makes the stock market like a pyramid scheme and a complete scam. If I was Google, i'd just continue issuing more and more shares. The idea is just absurd - pull some virtual shit off your ass and sell it for money! Google must be laughing at Wall Street right now.

    You simply open up a stock trading account and buy the shares.

    Go to your bank and ask them for more info.

    For the love of all that is sacred - don't be caught with G stocks when adCenter and YPN both go fully live.

    I honestly believe that ad income is still Google's only real "leg to stand on"... if they lose ANY market share in that area, their stock values will quickly fall to a more realistic level.

    I look at it like this... if you ran a business, and you managed to consume as much market share as Google has in search and advertising - if the business doesn't diversify and start competing in other industries - there is no place to go but down.

    I for one, will not be out to purchase any GOOG any time in the near future... now MSFT, or YHOO - I might consider.
