Link: Google To Acquire GrandCentral

Google is in acquisition discussions with telephone management startup GrandCentral, we’ve learned, and we have a high degree of confidence that the deal has actually been closed. We are trying to nail down the acquisition price.

Remember the one-number-to-rule-them-all company, GrandCentral?

Well they started, got running, then got bought for fifty million.

;-)

Nice.

CHAMPAGNE ON THE GRANDCENTRAL BOYS!!

    Argh. Pretty soon there won’t be any services to use without giving more personal information to Google, no matter what niche it is. So I’m a little bummed about this deal.
