Finally, It's a Google-YouTube Tandem


After the rumors slipped from an insider that Google is planning to acquire the world's number one online video sharing site-You Tube, finally, Google paid $1.65 billion in all stock acquisition. This is another wise maneuvering of this search giant to position itself as the leading "killer" apps on the web.


The YouTube team has built an exciting and powerful media platform that complements Google's mission to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful and that's the reason why it makes the urgent move to save its falling video business. And with this new acquitition, its just show that Google maintains us the king of the web and monopolizes the avenue of today's internet users.

YouTube as report says will continue to be based in San Bruno, CA, and all YouTube employees will remain with the company. With Google's technology, advertiser relationships and global reach, YouTube will continue to build on its success as one of the world's most popular services for video entertainment.

As of press time..Google continues to buy out other technology companies...
