Nestlé to buy Google
Share
Print
CommentsGoogle will complement Nestlé's long list of well-known brands, including Perrier water, Stouffer's, LifeSavers, and Nesquick. Nestlé says Google will be renamed NesGoogle and have a recipe section added to its main page.
"We believe that this acquisition will be good for the consumer," says Nestlé CEO Peter Brabeck. "Now anyone on the Internet can connect to NesGoogle, which will automatically determine their region and point them to retail outlets for Nestlé products."
Sources close to the deal disclosed that Google CEO Eric Schmidt was coerced into accepting the deal with Nestlé. Mr. Brabeck is alleged to have placed a large bowl of Nestlé Crunch Pieces in front of Mr. Schmidt during their discussions, refusing to allow him to eat any until agreeing to the takeover, while promising a free lifetime supply upon completion of the deal.
Asked to comment on the deal, Mr. Schmidt had very little to say; his only comment sounded something like "Mmmmmm."
Nestlé CEO Brabeck, asked what Nestlé plans to buy next, replied that NescroSoft has a nice ring to it.

Google sold out to Nestle?
Why?
I would much rather Hershey bought them. You know the kisses and all.
Just a spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down in a most delightful waaaaay."
The only'chocolate' that is likely to come with Windows is Ex-Lax.
They replied, "We will not be merging with MS, ever!"
I think Google as a company, is very pro-Linux, and cool towards MS. If you look in their Directory/Computers/Operating Systems, you will find that Linux is in bold letters, and Windows is not. That tells me they are taking a poke at MS.
And I believe that Google knows that they will be/are huge. I read somewhere that Googles potential for income will be at least billions of dollars a year, if not closer to 15-25 billion a year. Why sell off your future of fortune for minor comfort now?
:-D

NESGOOGLE!
Hee-hee!
What about 'Noogle'?
Or what about keeping it as exactly the same name (google), but just owning it?
I ask you, whats wrong with Googlè?
That way they wouldn't have to change much in their logos, and for those who don't want to, they can still pronounce it Google, just with a silent accent<nobr> <wbr></nobr>;)
A prefect recipe to improve the quality (or is it taste?) of Google results.
lol
NescroSoft
