Google Buys Jambool For $70 Millions.

Google the giant web service continue shopping, while recently they brought Slide, the social games company for $182 Millions, Now the new acquisition is announced to be Jambool for just $ 70 million.



Jambool, is a web service that allows you to access reliable and convenient payment systems to access to online social games. This is a company that was affected by the announcement of Facebook Credits, the response of the largest social network in the world to the globalization of one currency to which all can access. So as you can see, Google wants to face all this to try to have a space in the social gaming market which currently is being dominated by Facebook.

Apparently Google realize that social games are a big market, and all these acquisitions are aimed at a future call "Google Games" and that the Internet giant is not willing to surrender to companies like Facebook.
