Android, for instance, is approaching 1 billion users worldwide. YouTube is now a profitable division of Google, and it’s the third most popular website in the world. And the company’s Chrome Web browser, according to Softpedia, now has a commanding 41% market share, far ahead of Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT)‘s Internet Explorer and Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL)‘s Safari.

At today’s prices, Google shares trade hands for about 22 times earnings and about 25 times free cash flow. That’s not exactly cheap, but then again, the strength of Google’s business is pretty well known. I don’t expect it to ever trade hands for too cheap.
