Google acquires fflick

Have you heard of the site fflick? its a twitter-powered social media site that allows any twitter member to login and rate or recommend movies to your friends or to the world in general.

Its quite a neat little idea for a site, created by the original founders of Digg and less than 1 year old. And now its creators are $10 MILLION dollars richer thanks to a Google buyout last week.

I have attached an image of what it looked like last week. But don't bother checking out the site today, its already been pulled offline and replaced with a "to be continued....at YouTube" page. The speculation is that Google will be using this technology to further its social media presence.

Just goes to show you that there are still some GREAT ideas out there that can net you a kewl $10 mil within a year!
