Default Google Declares BANKRUPCY

Does the fact that Google just filed for bankrupcy undermind all our efforts to get google ranked and optimized?? I read they might be bought out by MSN...

You do realize that's a joke, right?

Note the dateline in the "report":

Linkbait!!!

Reminds of that story that went hot a while back about that kid who stole his dads credit card and bought thousands of dollars worth of stuff, including an Xbox 360 and some hookers. All fake, but brought in a ton of traffic.
