GrandCentral (almost?) acquired by Google for 50 million smackers
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.
