Google buys Adobe…

Google buys Adobe: I read it on the Internets, so I guess it must be true…? (I’m sitting here at the moment in the Community Lounge at MAX, next to Judith Dinowitz and Steven Erat, red wine in hand… just so you know where I’m coming from here…….

nice post, howard – you’ve thought this through!
one change i’d make is i’d have gmail + iphone take on rim – i hope steve jobs is thinking along those lines – i’d personally rather have email & im than itunes on the iphone – that could take apple corporate … hmmm

Angry man

Totally was not joking.

Inktomi was bought by Yahoo and someone forgot about akamai at $1 for a 50 plus bagger.

i have long written that HP or someone should have done a hostile bid for apple 2 years ago.

In 2 years you will look at adboe/macromedia and say why did we not own them

They all make sense for Google

At first I thought you were being crazy (particularly with Apple) but this makes perfect sense. Good god, Google would really be a juggernaut then.

shit.

I have already edited too many times.

It’s ok – we can sell to Yahoo. They will pay up so that all their Facebook dorks can watch it. All their money is green too
