QLOL: Kevin Rose on Digg Acquisition Rumors
QLOL, our daily LOLspeak take on the news of the day

Still no word on the rumors that Google is close to acquiring Digg for $200 million. What could possibly be holding the deal up?

I should apologize to Pownce users in advance on this one :-)

You're apologizing to them because they're actually using Pownce, right? (I went there!)

"What could possibly be holding the deal up?" the story on digg needs to hit 200M diggs before Googs forks out $200M for it !!
-
Well, Google coming to their senses could be holding it up... Steve Ballmer's foot up Kevin Rose's ass could be slowing things down too.

@Jason: Very true: after all, it is business and it is governed by money (and nice money in this case).
-
Jason, it would take 5 seconds to get out of that contract, or to just ignore it, like Facebook seems to be.
-
I didn't say they couldn't get out of it... just that Balmer isn't necessarily the kind of guy you want to cross... Could end up "sleeping with the fishes".

Jason, if there's one thing I know about Kevin Rose, is that he's charmed. Water off a ducks back. In the little correspondence I've had with him, I've also come to the conclusion that he's one of the nice guys as well. He has a humility about him that many others lack
