The year it exploded: 10 hottest Chinese social games of 2009
I'm not so sure on the Expedia and Google merger. Seems a bit fishy for me - why would Google want to invest in travel? Perhaps they might integrate flights with their google maps, but I don't see any sense in doing so. It'd make more sense for Google to buy out all of the affiliate programs as they did with Doubleclick. I have a feeling that Google is going to push harder in the eCommerce side and try to take over sites like Amazon/Buy.com.
I'm actually quite surprised that Best Buy did so well with their earnings, especially with the rising overhead costs for their B&M stores. With increased utility cost and inflation, along with sluggish sales, they're doing quite well for themselves. If only Circuit City could catch up.
