Earlier this week, Google announced it had agreed to purchase mobile display advertising firm AdMob, for an undisclosed amount rumored to be in the $750 million range.

How would it be to just whip out the old checkbook and write one for 750 million and then another for 30 million just a few days later? ;)

Heh, when you're as vast and all encompassing as Google, it'd probably feel like a Thursday.

I guess google voice was just lacking in pc to pc call and they want to include this facility now. as per my thinking that is the reason of plan to buy Gizmo5. if Google buy this then definitely they skype and google is going for compete each other to become no 1 or remain no.1 in voip industry.

"... recently leaked documents suggest the company may take the service global shortly. "
The first time i read that line i i though that you said google will take over the world. Silly me.

Or did i read it correctly? Muhahahaha!!!

It's all your imagination, Puiu... We, err, I mean Google, has not taken over the world...

Now here, take this blue pill and go back to your normal life...
