Google Could be working on acquiring twitter before the year end

The good folks over at Google are back, and with some interesting news. But we ask, Is Google Buying Twitter? Today the word comes down that Google is working with a financial advisor to consider a potential bid for Twitter Inc. In case you didn’t know, the social-media company continues to explore a sale, and this new bit comes as Google taps Lazard Ltd. to look into the bid.
While no word has been made by either Google or Twitter, it would be a natrual fit for Google, as they have cut deals around advertising and mobile publishing products. Lazard served as the financial adviser for Google’s purchase of software developer Apigee in September. Speak your mind on the news in the comments below and stay tuned. Word is that the deal is expected to close by year’s end.
