I looked at the green numbers all over the screen around 3:30 p.m.; nearly every BloggingStocks company was up big today, Google Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG) included. $6.75, I thought, wow. Nearly 2% increase.

And then there were earnings. Really, really, really great earnings. Revenue was up 70% over the third quarter of 2005. Ho-hum. That's because net income was up 92%. Holy ...

Holy $35 seems to be the end of that phrase. That's how much GOOG's up in after-hours trading, and may go even higher thanks to Cramer's new target of a whopping $560. While $560 seems almost insane to me, when I click over to after-hours trading I see a number that's awfully good. $459.51. Holy ...

How do you finish that phrase?

Holy moly! This is exciting. I really am thrilled about Google. Another thing about them, they seem to be a more accessible company. Their utilization of the internet to communicate to the masses in a way that's very personal, stands out. I think because of that, you also see more users that are loyal to Google. I LOVE GOOGLE, because they test their tools before they roll em, they're constantly innovating and they're creating enabling tools that helps me as a small business create my brand! Go Go Google! I hope they create storefronts. I will pay twice as much as I pay Ebay if Google can create a place for me. I'm just waiting to leave. Prisoners have no loyalty!
