Google Plus is Eating Startups

Alternative title: readwriteweb.com is eating anecdotal crumbs and producing baseless speculation and cool headlines.

I mean honestly. There was no meat in this article whatsoever.

Google buys Start-Ups all the time, since many years. Why should they stop now? Why should acquiring Start-Ups now be any different for them then a year ago or two?

Also they can't buy everything at once, so of course some of the features they would've liked to integrate earlier must come later now because the buying process took some time or there was no Start-Up about that topic, when they actually wanted to buy one.

That will be true if the number of startups will not stop at two as today.

This just in: Google likes to hire smart, motivated people
