Google is doing well - with revenue almost getting to the 40B/year mark. With strong momentum behind it - doesnt look like the competitors can catch upto it anytime soon. The mobile business has a run rate of 2.5 billion dollars/year which is very impressive. In addition, the google+ sites are slowly gaining traction. In addition, google has gained the number #1 slot in display advertising. It will be interesting to see how google branches to other areas and if it will go head to head with Amazon and other businesses in low margin businesses. www.infoworld.com/d/the-industry-standard/google-knocks-yahoo-us-display-ad-leader-336Another interesting sign in Google earnings is the growth in international revenues. In the total revenue mix, the international segment accounted for 55% of the revenue.

For MSFT, it has 2.5 billion in revenue and 2.5 billion in losses. So looks like it is kind of hard to catch google.
