Google May Buy Ukrainian Portal
The Quintura Blog repeats a rumor that Google may be poised to buy the Ukrainian portal Bigmir.net, the leading Ukrainian destination site with 2.5 million users.

If it were true, Google would likely displace Russian search engine Yandex, which currently provides results for Bigmir.
