Techcrunch is tantalizing us with talk of late-stage Twitter acquisition talk.
If true, it leads one to wonder: what will a Twitter universe look like under Google? Clearly, it will allow the leading search engine company to more accurately graph the social web, and the reputation that follows information. It will also require a close eye on various techniques used to mimic hotness.
We've already recently weighed in here, not only predicting that an acquisition would happen (by mid-May was the conservative take). And in terms of the valuation and trajectory, and the ultimate outcome (no doubt, ubiquity and resources for stability and growth), we're sticking to the story that the pattern resembles YouTube's.
