Is it true Google bought fluther?

Asked by JLeslie (65746points) October 3rd, 2013

My husband said he heard it, or saw it, on the news.

Is it true? If it is true, what do you think? Will it affect whether you come to fluther or not?

It is so unlikely; why the heck would they do that? Googling the two terms just brought up stuff about Ben Finkel’s new position at Jelly and Fluther’s acquisition by Twitter.

I think this is what he was referring to. Nearly soundalikes, aren’t they?

@glacial By george, she’s got it. That makes more sense.

Boy am I glad its Flutter.

When I first read you Q I just about had a coronary. Nothing good can come from Fluther being swallowed by a giant conglomerate.

What would they want with Fluther?
They might as well buy 4chan.

Seeing as the site is not 99% white, with 500k daily users, I’m going to guess it is not.

@glacial I bet that is it! LOL. I’m glad it’s not fluther.
