Google stock as seen above has officially hit 500 and actually went over. Yahoo and Microsoft aren’t doing nearly as well as of late in comparison to Google [seen below]. So what does this mean for Google? Probably more acquisitions. In a recent article on News.com, the value of Google was set at around USD$151.8 billion. With recent purchases of Jotspot and Youtube.com for probably less than USD$1 billion [combined], Google isn’t really breaking a sweat yet for financial problems.
AdSense keeps getting stronger everyday with the amount of publishers they are adding and the new advertisers joining everyday to spend more money. Google is becoming more and more successul everyday without even really having to try at it. Google is almost becoming a keyturn company with just a creative boost behind it.
Yahoo! and Microsoft still have a ways to go before gaining the lead. Google simply invested the time and money to get everything started and did a better job of it. Yahoo! and Microsoft have been taking a lot more time to do things and had other focuses than what they were producing. Microsoft has Windows to deal with and Yahoo! has…wait, what does Yahoo! have…I actually don’t really know.
Del.icio.us couldn’t really be taking that much of their time away from other things. Yahoo! really doesn’t have an excuse.
