Google to buy Doubleclick

[Join us @ facebook]

Recently Microsoft and Google expressed their interest to buy DoubleClick, one of the bigger - or maybe the biggest - CPM networks around.

It looks like there is a big war going on regarding the online advertising, and Microsoft realized that it is too late to start their own program. By now I know that MS created their adsense alternative (which is very new and can't say much about) and that they partnered with Yahoo regarding this market.

With this new acquisition MS is probably trying to get themselves in the game faster, and the interesting is that Google don't want to let this happen. I think this is the first time that MS and Google fight open so I guess this acquisition is also a matter of pride for both of these companies.

I suppose Google will not disclose its fargoing plans for the internet business... I suppose they are to become monopoly in some time..

i think google had already taken over Doubleclick, feedburner and many other websites already.

well done, this thread is 18month old

I'm wondering if we should start locking some of these ancient threads? It wouldn't stop the spamming but it might make it a little less annoying. lol

Hmm, you have a point here. I should create a script that locks threads that have a last reply > 6 months old.

Thanks for the idea

Some of the old threads have merit though. This story, on the other hand, is over.

Good.i love it

Google will always win.
