Google's Rare Homepage Push for Droid
Do you see something strange in this screenshot of Google’s homepage today? No, not Bert and Ernie (it’s Sesame Street’s 40th birthday). It’s that ad for the Verizon Droid right there under the search box (today is also Droid Day). Although, the juxtaposition does make it seem like Bert and Ernie are trying to get you to buy a Droid.

Growth in Local Online Advertising Expected to Slow
Though this year has been dismal for advertising overall, local online advertising is expected to hit $14.2 billion by year’s end, a 12% increase over 2008, according to a report and five-year forecast from Borrell Associates.
Marketing Charts submits:
Despite this growth, however, Borrell predicts that things will get tougher in 2010, when local online sales will hit only $14.9 billion, or 5% higher than 2009 figures. This slowdown will likely occur because the market is approaching saturation and "the wave many locally focused media companies have been riding for the past several years has peaked,” the report said.

The Web Doesn't Belong to the Young After All
More than three-fourths (77%) of online Americans ages 65+ say they shop online, the highest percentage among any generational group, according to a study by the Cable & Telecommunications Association for Marketing (CTAM). The research found that older Americans - including both Seniors (also referred to as “Matures”) and the younger Baby Boomer cohort - have overwhelmingly made the internet an integral part of their everyday lives and often rival younger generations in online activities.

Google’s Post-Earnings Trading: Don't Look for Consistency
Soon after Google’s (GOOG) earnings I bought a November 570/580 call spread given that the year-over-year revenue growth rate finally seems to be turning around and revenue per employee looks ready to trend upward as well. I am finally getting around to explaining the move (as I promised to do) now that GOOG has reversed all its post-earnings gains. I have long been interested in the behavior of trading in GOOG directly before and after earnings. In particular, I have looked at the impact these moves have on GOOG’s options. In early 2007, I concluded that, on balance, it is better to be a seller of GOOG options than a buyer before earnings. Since then, only 2 out of 11 earnings cycles have provided options buyers – who happened to be on the correct side of the price movement – good profit-making opportunities. Given this challenge, I decided to expand an analysis I did in late 2006 on the timing of GOOG’s minimum and maximum price moves between earnings. I tried to find consistent patterns in the data that would generate a rule for how to trade GOOG after earnings given the initial reaction to the earnings announcement. I was quite disappointed to find little consistency in GOOG’s post-earnings trading. (For one of many comparisons, click here for a review of exotic options trades ahead of GOOG earnings.)

Yahoo Responds to Google Music Search by Searching YouTube for Music Videos
By Leena Rao
TechCrunch submits:
Last week Google (GOOG) launched the Music Onebox — a special new music search product that lets users stream songs in their entirety for free. Thursday, Yahoo Video is answering by improving its music video search offering. When you search for a song or artists, Yahoo (YHOO) will extract music videos of the most popular songs and albums for that artists or band. It appears that most of the songs are pulled from YouTube, Last.fm and other music sites.

eBay's PayPal X Platform Could Drive an Increase in Transactions
If PayPal X is adopted widely it could have a positive impact on eBay's stock price by driving more transactions for each PayPal account. Payments per account on PayPal has fallen in recent years from 1.7 payments per account on average in 2005 to less than 1.2 today.
eBay (EBAY) recently announced plans to launch PayPal X a platform that allows software developers to create payment applications that utilize PayPal. With PayPal incorporated directly into applications, users will not have to navigate to a separate payment site to complete a transaction potentially driving more transactions for developers and PayPal.

Ask.com, Microsoft and AOL - Internet Love Triangle?
I remember hearing a few weeks ago that Diller would consider selling Ask.com (IACI) (formally AskJeeves.com). I immediately thought of 2 suitors, Microsoft (MSFT) (Bing) and AOL.com (TWX).
Both companies have made deals to increase their reach. Microsoft is making a deal with Yahoo (YHOO) and Aol purchased Bebo. AOL will be out of TWX soon and will need some kind of growth since its ISP business is all but dead.
