Google-YouTube is Done - Who Cares

Google finally bought YouTube. Maybe now we can all stop focusing on minutia M&A stuff and focus on bigger, meatier issues like where social media is all going and what it means. I am reluctant to even link to this because it's been written about to death. It's a deal. Now it's done. Woo hoo. Good for Google. Good for YouTube. Great for social media. Even better for the blogopshere because we won't be talking about this much longer.
