    Google 'in $250 million bid for Twitter'

    Google is reportedly in "late stage negotiations" to buy social networking site Twitter in a deal valued at $250 million (£170 million).

    Technology website TechCrunch reported the rumours yesterday, citing two unnamed sources close to the deal who said an agreement was close to being reached.

    Twitter founders Evan Williams, Biz Stone and Jack Dorsey have a history of buyout deals with the world's biggest search engine after they sold their Blogger website to them five years ago.

    Based on 140 character messages or "tweets" in answer to the question "What are you doing?" Twitter has seen its popularity soar in recent months as the latest trend in social networking.

    It can be accessed from the web, mobile phones or through instant messaging, but the site has struggled to find ways to pull in revenue.

    Bosses reportedly turned down a $500 million (£339 million) bid for the site from rival Facebook last year, but announced last month they would start charging for business accounts.

    TechCrunch later reported a third source had confirmed discussions between Google and Twitter were taking place, although they suggested talks were at a fairly early stage and were not necessarily considering a straight forward buyout.

    Other options include the two companies working in partnership to create a real-time search engine.

    A spokesperson for Google said: "We do not comment on rumour or speculation."

    Google also have a history of buying up successful smaller sites, paying $1.65 billion for video sharing forum YouTube in 2006, although the company recently admitted it has struggled to turn a profit from the site.

    I cant stand Twitter, I cant imagine why Google would want to buy them out.

    Good reason, check the usage and the ad revenue potential.

    Not sure I see Twitter spitting out too much of a profit for Google, seeing as how Facebook/Myspace are already well-established.
    Google should invest in IronMagazine!

    None of the share sites are profitable at this point.

    At some point they will be but figuring out how is the tricky part.

    I love Twitter, especially the celebrity tweets, I get to see what no life losers they are just like the rest of us schlubs when they aren't in front of the camera.... Look at Ashton Kutcher he's tweeting all day long, must be boring sitting around doing nothing all day waiting to go to bed with Demi....

    not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
    and drag down the features of age,
    no folds or creases from unkempt wear
    eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
    no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
    but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012

    You said it already it's simpler, just a quick text msg from your Iphone or Blackberry, that's it's appeal......
