I wonder if they'll buy Flickr? I want them to. That way I could use it with the other Google services (I fervently dislike Picasa).

Signing the truth.

Google's ad reach is VERY good in the US, Canada and numerous parts of the world. It's ad reach is NOT the same, everywhere. In Asia, Yahoo is still very dominant and Google's share is simply not as strong.

To be honest, Google is just whoring it out: selling ads to those who want a cut of it all. Google would also do the MSN/Live stuff, but MS is a bit .. against that experience.
