Welcome to another week of the daily edition of CobWEBs, the flagship podcast of The Cynical Bastards!

For those who don’t remember from the other episodes, this is a new format for the show as we are going to try giving you daily bite sized chunks of our patented brand of cynicism over everything in the tech universe. The show will have a rotating host schedule between Steven Hodson, Mark ‘Rizzn’ Hopkins and myself. You’ll always get two of us, you just never know which two!

Mark ‘Rizzn’ Hopkins and I have a discussion about the numerous acquisitions made today, and rumors of even more about to happen.  Apparently tech companies have a lot of money to spread around right now!  Here are the stories we’re discussing:

Google Acquires AdMob For $750 Million In Stock

Rumor: Google To Purchase VoIP Solution Gizmo5

EA acquires Playfish for $400 million
