Google To Acquire DocVerse; Office War Heats Up

Amplifyd from www.techcrunch.com

Google, which is currently on one heck of a spending spree, is closing an acquisition of San Francisco based DocVerse, a service that lets users collaborate around Microsoft Office documents, we’ve heard from a source with knowledge of the deal. The purchase price is supposed to be around $25 million.

Docverse lets users collaborate directly on Microsoft Office documents. Appjet, another recent Google Acquisition, has a related product called EtherPad, although that team is reported to be working with Google Wave and the EtherPad source code has been released to the community.

ccording to sources close to the situation, along with its pending bid for Yelp, Google has been in on-again, off-again acquisition talks with Trulia, the real estate search engine.

It is unclear what price Google (GOOG) would pay, but sources estimate that Trulia’s valuation ranges between $150 million and $200 million, although there could be a big premium on that.

10 Ways Social Media Will Change In 2010

Written by Ravit Lichtenberg from Ustrategy.com / December 11, 2009 6:00 AM / 0 Comments

2010_predict_1209.jpgThis time last year, I wrote about the 10 ways social media will change 2009, and while all predictions have materialized or are on their way, it has only become clear in recent months how significant of a change we've seen this year. 2009 will go down as the year in which the shroud of uncertainty was lifted off of social media and mainstream adoption began at the speed of light.

Amplifyd from www.techcrunch.com

Startup CloudShare, formerly known as IT Structures, has raised $10 million in series B financing from Sequoia Capital, Gemini Capital, and Charles River Ventures. This brings CloudShare’s total funding up to $16 million.

That amount of funding isn’t shabby for a company that has been in stealth for nearly two years. Cloudshare, which launched to the public, last week, has produced a service for demoing software in the cloud. Organizations can instantly deploy multiple, independent copies of their existing demos or training environments from CloudShare’s platform.

ProSieben verschiebt umstrittene Soap

Schneller Erfolg
Eine der schnellsten Sendetermin-Verschiebungen der deutschen Fernsehgeschichte: Nach der öffentlich geäußerten Kritik an der Pseudo-Dokusoap "50 pro Semester" hat ProSieben den Start auf einen Termin später im Jahr 2010 verlegt.

Hamburg/München - Der katholische Bischof von Hamburg, die Vorsitzende des Kinderschutzbundes von Schleswig-Holstein und die bayerische Familienministerin - die Phalanx der Kritiker der neuen ProSieben-Soap "50 pro Semester" war vergleichsweise überschaubar. Doch sie reichte aus, um das Projekt vorerst zu stoppen.
