Google acquires stake in AOL

NEW YORK (Reuters) – Google Inc. and America Online Inc. Tuesday expanded their search and advertising alliance to include video and instant messaging, shutting out Microsoft Corp., which had fought hard for a deal with Time Warner Inc.’s AOL unit.

Finally. I’m glad AOL chose google to partner with. Not only does Google make good solid web products and searching… they have respect on the internet. Now, with AOL as dynamic as they are, will adapt to the expectation of users of Google products, and have their own niche to target with Google clients. Google stated that their Google Talk product will integrate with the AIM network.

Woo Hoo!
