Google To Acquire fflick For $10 Million - http://techcrunch.com/2011...
Google's picking up a Flickchart clone? - Louis Gray
Louis - it's not like Flickchart at all. - Nathan Chase
It's scraping Twitter for sentiment about movies. - Nathan Chase
they have a lot of competition too: See http://onesentencereview.com/ and Flixup http://techcrunch.com/2009... (now part of Miso) - Nathan Chase
Jeremy, too kind. - Nathan Chase
/ducks from body blows by Nathan. - Louis Gray
But hey, if Google wants to spend $10 million on a movie-related site, that's good news for all of us. - Nathan Chase
I imagine their sentiment analysis is what Google's swiping up. Talent and tech grab. - Nathan Chase
A coworker is one of the creators of fflick. Happy for him :) - Tamara
Meant to ask you, Louis - have you run into any of the fflick guys now that you're at Google? - Nathan Chase
Nathan, not sure. But good question. I'll look. - Louis Gray
They're probably with the YouTube team - which might be removed a bit from Google-proper. I'm not familiar enough with the lay of the land there at Google HQ to know. - Nathan Chase
Not sure if they all work in the same place but my excoworker works on the YouTube team in the San Bruno office - Tamara
