How long before a new search engine comes along and people stop using it. Hope you don't have any stock in the company before it does.

How do you pay 1.6 Billion US for a website that shows mostly dumb videos. Here today gone tomorrow

There net worth is 139 billion. so to get the hottest site for about 1% of your total worth its worth it. its all pot odds.

Its only worth 139 000 000 000 if you start making lots of real money (6 000 000 000+ profit a year) otherwise it goes the way of the rest of the dot com bubble.

Google is way off that figure!

The one thing you can't do is count MS out. Many highly-paid executives have tried that route and later been found in the unemployment line after MS has subverted/perverted their marketshare.
