The search giant Google has a habit of acquiring those companies who start rocking the world; and apparently its new target is the most powerful micro-blogging community on the Earth — Twitter.

The news is shaking, though it isn’t officially announced by either company. But the rumors of Google acquiring Twitter have started out lately from the founder of twitter. That’s why we are putting much value into the rumor; which may soon become a reality.

Jack Dorsey, the founder and chairman of Twitter, attended a panel session titled as “European Gang Live” at LeWeb 09 in Paris, where he was asked by journalists if the search giant Google was planning to buy his company. People there were expecting a straight “No”; but the founder instead replied saying:

“There have been no announcements.” (Telegraph online)

As soon as he answered the question in this kind of positive tone, he was repeatedly being questioned by others why he hadn’t denied the possibility of the deal between Google and Twitter. In reply, he just said that the answer had come to him.

He also said:

Twitter is focused on building a sustainable company.

That’s when the rumor among millions of twitter users and other technologists as well as end users has begun. Another rumor of Google interested in buying twitter had spread earlier this week, and when Google started indexing updates from twitter in a real-time basis, the rumor has just strengthened.

The founder has given wood onto the fire by not denying the possibility of the deal between his company and the largest “acquiring-company”, Google.
