Google shares rise this week
Starting September 11 at $378, Google finished the week with a gain of over 8%, to $409.88. I think Google is continuing to expand at a rapid pace. They’re buying small companies that you don’t hear about, start-ups that have only been around for a couple months before Google snaps them up. The masterminds behind the company then join Google and bring expertise to help Google strengthen its offerings in core markets. Particularly in the mobile sector, including phones and services for phones, using SMS or mobile web browsers. I wouldn’t be surprised if you start seeing new Google applications that actually run on your phone, though, whether in Java or something else.
