Google's Financial Results for Q2

"Google grew at an impressive pace during a seasonally slower quarter. [...] Our strong performance results from our clear focus on increasing the quality of user experience, particularly in search and ads," says Eric Schmidt, Google's CEO.

Google reported revenues of $2.46 billion for the second quarter, an increase of 77% compared to the second quarter of 2005 and an increase of 9% compared to the first quarter of 2006. The net income increased to $721.1 million, or $2.33 a share, from $342.8 million, or $1.19 a share, a year earlier.

* they'll launch AdSense for radio in 3 months worldwide

* they'll test mobile ads, first in Asia (Japan)

* increase the presence in countries where Google isn't the leader: China, Russia, Korea

* more partners for distribution and content
