How much Google makes?

How much Google makes?

Google announced earnings today. How much are your clicks worth?

$5.19 billion with $1.31 billion net profit.

If we cut it down by days that’s $43.250.000 million per day. Care for hours? $1.802.083 per hour or $30.034 per second.

tick…tick…..tick… :D

What would you do with that cash? Assuming you were a sole share owner? Hmm… I’d buy a nice car :P That leaves me with… another $1.31 billion! Tough work spending all that money. A jet, a yacht, big house, some islands? At that level its all about the game. I’d probably feed some kids, in Africa and not with 50 bags of rice for $3000 and $3 million media promotion, but the real stuff :D before “black SUVs with tinted windows” started following :D

“As of March 31st, Google employees 19,156 full-time employees” – SE Land

Growing bigger. Last time I did an article they were at 16.000. That’s 3000 + over a couple month? Gets the wow.

The question is for how long Google is going to keep the momentum going. Can’t be forever can it? Google is best no question, but the innovation at that level is tough! How long before GooglePlex becomes a de spirited place? Will it? Who knows. maybe one day we will see Google Brain!

Out for today. Promised Architecture Tomorrow morning!
