    I came across this link last night and was really surprised to hear that Google's shares had slipped. I was wondering how and if that was related to Yahoo shares down as well and the resignation of one of their primary executives.

    They are still making more than last year. It's just less than analysts expected. Google gets most of it's money from advertising. If companies slash advertising because the economy is doing badly Google earns less.

    The whole world is dealing with a economic crisis. This was to be expected but i am sure Google is doing just fine financially.

    Nobody's perfect in so many ways, yet it is not a soul ground for people to judge Google for this slip that they are doing wrong decisions.
