Google Chooses An Underwriter For Upcoming IPO

Posted by timothy on from the money-in-the-bank dept.

PenguinSix writes "Bloomberg and a bunch of others are reporting that Google has hired Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs Group Inc. to arrange its initial public offering. This follows literally years of rumors and stories about a Google IPO. About a third of Mountain View, California-based Google may be sold in the IPO, giving the company a market value of about $12 billion, the bankers said." Google has become so invaluable to many people (like me) that they could probably raise just as much money with a blackmail scheme.

    I wholeheartedly agree with you. http://goatse.cx is an excellent one, with no google-like ranking spam, and will one day be bigger than google. Yes, goatse is a funny name for a search engine, even more so than google. I think they're Norwegian.
