Google's stock got hammered in trading on Monday. Even though Google is awash in cash, their only business is online advertising. They are throwing money at other attempts to diversify their business but aren't very successful at it (see Google Earth--nice program--no revenue). For domainers, the most serious issue is perceived click fraud. Investors are aware of and openly discussing the issue. Google will really tighten the strings now and set higher demands for domain names that can use their advertisements. Parking companies will be the first place they look. Advertisers want targetted clicks from quality websites not parked pages. This could get very nasty if Google starts to disallow payments to a lot of people based on click quality. Time will tell.

Believe it or not, Google will never go bankrupt. They will evolve.
