Google Splashes Out 3 Billion On DoubleClick

Question: What’s worth $3.1 billion in cash?

Answer: DoubleClick… Google’s latest acquisition.

This purchase by Google is close to double (ahem, no pun intended) what Google paid for YouTube ($1.65 billion in stock) back in October 2006.

So… if this trend continues, will you be the person to sell something to Google for $6 billion in cash in October 2007? :-)

    Hi Neil

    I will be happy to sell something to Google for $6 billion and am very willing to create that product and build the user base. You game for splitting the 6 bil?

    Sure thing. :-)

    The trick is predicting what will sell next for 6 bill… then creating it… several times. ;-)

    Neil.
