Digital Trends has reported that Google and WhatsApp are in advance talks for an acquisition deal.
The report claims that the talks are stuck at the valuation of the deal. WhatsApp is seeking nearly USD 1 billion!
I personally think that it would be absurd that Google would pay 1 billion dollars for WhatsApp.
I understand that WhatsApp is currently the most popular group messaging app in the world. They have a monetization strategy that seems to be working. People do not mind paying 1 dollar per year to get connected to their network. But still.
Google already has Google Talk which probably has more users than WhatsApp. They have Google+ Messenger which can simply be merged with Google Talk. And then they have Google+ Hangouts?
In any case, a deal today would delay the release of the rumored Google Babble/Babel platform which is supposed to integrate all Google communication tools.
