So, YouTube is sold for $1.65bn (nearly £900 million). Imagine the scenes as the deal is hammered out:
Google: We will buy YouTube for $1.5bn
YouTube: Hmm, I was thinking more in the lines of $2bn. I mean we can't let it go so cheaply.
Google: $1.65bn and you have a deal.
Not bad for something that started in someone's garage 18 months ago.
