If the future of @twitter is an information network, then an acquisition by @google makes sense for all parties involved (most importantly, consumers).

Here are four reasons why:

1. Google has organized the world’s information digitally, while Twitter has developed a superior method of delivering that information.
2. Google’s mobile adoption would significantly boost Twitter’s global penetration.
3. While Google owns Search (i.e. intent), Twitter owns discovery (i.e. awareness) - the two combined represent advertising nirvana.
4. Twitter adds a social layer to all Google products, enhancing the user experience across Search, YouTube, Maps, News, Local, etc.
