Google Is in Talks to Buy YouTube

  • Thread starter Thread starter Kuja
  • Start date Start date
Google and Yahoo have a partnered agreement. Microsoft bought Yahoo in an effort to crush Google this year. Unfortunately, google search and Yahoo search signed a contract with each other to use the same redirect engines.

So. Yeah.:)
 
Micro$oft bought Yahoo? Are you shitting me? I heard nothing about it!!

*Googles*

Edit: That doesn't seem to be true. Why would you lie?
 
Ok then KUJA, why do you think Yahoo and Windows Live work together now? And why do you think it says Microsoft at the bottom of Yahoo's Japanese Ebay? Answer is simple.
October 31, 2004
The New York Times reported this morning that software king Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) and search giant Google have been exploring the idea of a partnership -- or even a merger.

Such a deal makes sense, especially for Microsoft. It's been wanting to grab a slice of the lucrative search business that captures advertising dollars on a pay-per-click basis. It could jump into the market on its own, or just go with the existing marquee name. Google, along with Yahoo!-owned rival Overture (Nasdaq: YHOO), dominates the pay-per-click market. Yahoo!-purchased earlier this year by Microsoft secretly much like Infogrames Inc purchased Atari ltd in 2003, is currently still a seperate entity though the trademarks have merged. Microsoft has plans to merge the searchbar, Symantec's Antivirus, and their IM clients with Yahoo! users worldwide.

The Times article, citing unnamed company executives, says Google probably prefers to pass on the deal for now, figuring an initial public offering makes more sense. The company does have to keep one thing in mind, however: What would happen to the value of its IPO if Microsoft announced intentions of entering the market in a big way?

In the meantime, consider what might happen if the deal does go through.

That is pure bullshit.

Give me a credible source that says Micro$oft bought Yahoo, and I'll believe you. Otherwise, you're a liar.

It's called authorized partnership agreements. It's Microsoft plans to do with Google so quit pointing fingers and calling people liars. because you're probably an idiot to begin with for believing Google will show you the world.

First from Yahoo on the client side partner with AOL as well from YAHOO's site.

Second from Microsoft's site.

You should quit calling people names until you surf the internet a bit more. Cause wiki just doesn't show you enough. Not the entire truth.... Now let the topic die as we know Yahoo has merged most of it's network, and google will be right behind it soon.

I'm leaving this topic because you're a little bit proud of yourself. And that never works convincing an already convinced fanboy.......

Nowhere does it say, "Microsoft Owns Yahoo!" or "Microsoft Buys Yahoo!"

Just speculation and talks.

Live Search Results for "Microsoft Buys Yahoo"

Google Results for the same


Notice the first few links end in question marks.

From Wikipedia:

Revenue model

YouTube states that its business model is advertising-based. Some industry commentators have speculated that YouTube's running costs — specifically the bandwidth required — may be as high as US$1 million per-month,[24] thereby fuelling criticisms that the company does not have a viably implemented business model. Advertisements were launched on the site beginning in March 2006. In April, YouTube started using Google AdSense. Google subsequently stopped using AdSense. Given its traffic levels, video streams and pageviews, some have calculated that YouTube's revenues could be in the millions per month


How Does YouTube Make Money
 
Quit qouting Wikipedia. It's not a factual reference. And two, they do not typically own it entirely but now they own a large portion. And the search results YOU linked end in question marks. Also, they are generated from traffic specific keywords.

If I bought more stock than anyone else in your company, I relatively own the largest portion-period. And finally Yahoo! is not an independant company.
It is comprised of shareholding dividend providers and business partitions created from revenue achieved through investment.

I thought you were leaving.

God, what is with you? You're so anti-Wikipedia. Embrace the Web 2.0 revolution man! Everyone's doing it.

I don't even care anymore. Yahoo isn't owned by Micro$oft. Google will rule the world in a few years. I'm over it.
 
I didn't expect such a proud response. If you don't care anymore, then I would suggest you care enough next time not to call people liars. Especially, when they have two degrees. Someone must be doing something right, eh? L@WL.
 
It's official. Google will buy YouTube for $1.65 Billion.

From Wikipedia:

On October 9, 2006 it was announced that the company will be purchased by Google for US$1.65 billion in stock, which will make it Google's biggest purchase to date. The purchase agreement between Google and YouTube came after YouTube presented three agreements with media companies in an attempt to escape the threat of copyright-infringement lawsuits. YouTube will continue to operate independently, and the company's 67 employees and its co-founders will continue working within the company.
