Google Snags A9 Chief

So another big name in search joins the Google juggernaut. How long have they been on friendly terms, you wonder?

Based on the experimental -- but commercially unsuccessful -- nature of some of the A9 technology, we kinda suspected A9 was on friendly terms with Google (at one point on this blog, I alluded to it as being "Google Labs 2."

Now, the key figure in this remote search lab has been brought in-house.

Does the timing coincide just a little too closely with Amazon's announcement that it's launching its own contextual ad network?

You sense that the friendly coopetition between these two companies just got a little pricklier.
