Google is due to release their finacial numbers at the end of January and the rumor is the numbers are not good. I think they will do their PR updates right before then to get the public talking about the updates instead of their bad numbers. Sound logical?

The same company sued a bunch of others, including Vonage, and Cablevision. They're also trying to settle with Skype (ebay) and AOL.

Sounds like a load of crap in general to me.

Here's an interesting article about it:

Please tell me you're on crack. Google is doing well... look at the stock... right now its up $10.44 over yesterday at $461.84. Their advertising is making them more and more money each quarter. Obviously you're not doing your homework. Several have set the price target up to $600 now...

A quick search on google for "google financial" pulled this up from today:

Stop hyping Google. I need them to go bancrupt so SevenSeek can take over.

You obviously have way to much money investing in Google!

And may I say John Scott is this a record, I have been flamed on my first post in this forum?

Julie is a bit short tempered if I remember correctly. I think she was a customer of ours when we had V7 Inc hosting, and I couldn't sleep at night for fear of having my recurring nightmare staring jkent. Best thing is just to agree with anything she says.

I'm not short tempered. I come off too strongly on here. Sorry

It's not intentional.

I might be a Google lover, but some of you guys seem to be Google-haters for dumb reasons. SevenSeek will never take over.
