To Google: I would be honored if you would take a look at my Company Page. My Company will be experiencing over $88 Million this year for just a start-up cost of Less than $180.00. Electronics is definitely the thing of the future with research gearing to the Senior groups.

This seems to be a great idea. Start buying while most in the market are too busy staying afloat. Already there seem to be about a dozen web 2.0-ish companies that would make great Google candidates -- services like Toodledo or Evernote come immediately to mind.

Could be wise strategically. In today's market you can probably acquire more innovation than a few years ago. Hopefully it'll 'inspire' a few other VC's to re-open their cash boxes :)

I'll be interested to see whether shares in the VC fund are available to general investors.

Such corporate funds rarely have a fixed cap of available money -- I've seen similar setups in Cisco and Intel.

Do u guys find this venture fund suspect? What if its just a strategy for them to actually gauge competition that are gaining traction in the market and to survey new ideas as well. My company is developing a unique product that we think will sell and we are thinking of going to Google but are wary of their intentions. Our product is still in its inception stage and if Google happens to get a hold of the idea, it would literally take them just a day to create and implement our project without us knowing and poof! Idea gone! Whats your take on this?

Nice strategic move. The question has been: how will Google continue to grow? This could very well be the core of the answer over the long term.
