prey for google?

Rajesh Jain has a good statement over there at emergic.org.

"With Google seeking to raise USD 1-2 billion in the next few months, I think attention is going to shift to preparing companies for Google to takeover. I think there will be significant VC and entrepreneurial activity which will involve making bets (I think Friendster is an example) that Google will, with its newly acquired cash hoard, acquire promising companies before Yahoo and Microsoft get to them. This is a bubble which will be fuelled by a small set of companies with ample cash amongst them."

Interesting finding and he's probably very much right.
