Google y Facebook están teniendo conversaciones "de bajo nivel" para adquirir Twitter, en las que la compañía de internet llegó a ser valorada en hasta 10.000 millones de dólares, según informa el Wall Street Journal. En diciembre, Twitter obtuvo 200 millones de dólares para financiarse en una operación que le dio a la compañía un valor de 3.700 millones de dólares.
¿Hay alguna parte del mundo que Google no vaya a controlar?, voy a llamarles para ver si tienen también intenciones de comprar las viñas de mi abuela o las voy a poder heredar
Los propietarios de Twitter han repetido tantas veces como se les ha preguntado que no tienen intención de vender su empresa a nadie, que están en esto porque les gusta y quieren llegar tan alto como puedan y sepan.
Y por una vez no parece que sus declaraciones sean una estrategia encubierta para subir el precio de venta.
Que exagerados que sois con google.

Tanto ha sido criticado Microsoft por sus practicas monopolistas... y al final, resulta que todos son iguales.. o por lo menos parecidos
El pez grande se come al chico..
¿Hay alguna parte del mundo que Google no vaya a controlar?, voy a llamarles para ver si tienen también intenciones de comprar las viñas de mi abuela o las voy a poder heredar
#1 Google controlará lo que le deje Mercadona
Google esta perdiendo todo el "buen rollo" que había conseguido crear alrededor de su marca y se está convirtiendo en el demonio Microsoft!!
jiji, entre los dos grandes le van a pegar una paliza al pequeño que no lo va a reconocer ni su madre
