And on another subject, I’m not going to bother linking to any of the many stories about it but let’s just say that I totally agree with Mark Cuban that Google was insane to pay $1.65 billion for freaking Youtube. ONE POINT SIX FIVE BILLION DOLLARS. That’s, like, forty thousand Euros! I mean, bless Google for giving it a shot, but I don’t see any way that this acquisition will ever pay for itself. Although, on the other hand, they paid for the company in stock–so once the market reflects the idiocy of the purchase in Google’s price per share the real dollar value of the acquisition will be a lot more reasonable. I’m pretty sure that wasn’t what Google had in mind, though.
