Google Buys YouTube. All I hope is that the Bankers GOT SCREWED out of the deal – AND – APPLE IS NEXT?

So smart. So big. So exciting. Oh and an all stock transaction- perfect for Google. What do the venture guys care. The nerds will have at it on TechMeme , but I read it first at The Blogging Times. Cool.

I really hope Google f@#$ked the bankers in this deal and did it themselves. What advice could they have provided? Oh yeah – don’t so it!

See ya Calacanis, See you Netscape, See you AOL, See you Yahoo (not really – but lot’s more heavy lifting), Adios SONY. WOW!

Ebay is the only big warrior not attacked by this move.

PS – APPLE IS NEXT IN SIGHT :)

PSS – Google has added over $4 billion in market capitalization since the rumor started, so short-term, the market has spoken on the synergies. That I don’t trust for what it’s worth!

PSSS – Let’s just shoot all the lawyers because unfortunately, they just made a few billion in coming lawsuits. BUT, that is just a rounding error in the big picture.
