  Old  $80bn Google takes top media spot...

Hey,

The almighty google have taken the top media spot after a change in the stock market and there shares which upped the company's value to an amazing $80bn. However analysts believe Google's shares are overpriced, as they are priced as high as $325-350/per share.

Google never fails to surprise as it dominates the Internet, I find it interesting that Google influences the Internet so dramatically.

What are your thoughts on Google and the Internet's future?

Kind Regards,
BoxedPixels.

Intersting, but a great victory for them!

I see Google launching loads of projects in the upcoming years that people will love, as Gmail has been a great hit and they still have many ideas rolled up their sleeves probably...


What I'm afraid of though is Google could crash... If they try to do too much and or do something wrong along the way their ruling could be gone within 24 hours and someone else could take over, when your at the top it could only take 1 mistake to put you back down t the bottom (yes I know about that law suit for the fraud or w/e, but anything is possible!)

I just hope Google focuses instead of trying to do too much, at any one time.

Unlikely I'm afraid to say - It is like saying I hope Microsoft doesn't crash - With an $80 billion valuation they can turn over 25% of that and still be in business - makes you wish you had taken their offer up now eh???

I think Google is one of the greatest pioneers ever, and I am looking forward to there future projects especially an alternative to PayPal and you never know they may try to take over the Instant Messenger battle.
