NEW YORK (Reuters) - Google and Yahoo Inc. , two of the most popular search engines on the Internet, will stop taking advertisements from online gambling firms, the New York Times said Monday.

In a move that could hurt the Internet gambling industry, the two powerful web firms Friday said they will stop running ads for online casinos by the end of April, the Times said.

The action comes as U.S. authorities threaten to crack down on U.S. companies doing business with online gambling firms located overseas and whose operations are illegal in the U.S., the Times said.

Yahoo and Google declined to say if they have been subjects of the gambling probe, the Times said.

Representatives from Yahoo and Google were not immediately available to comment.

I'm just wondering when Google is going public with an IPO, my guess is their first target will be India like Yahoo did with REDF last week, which was an 8 plus stock and is now 12 plus and has over a 1.00 gain today, not bad for a tech stock. The thing I like is it doesn't hurt us really, it's just servers and internet and a few hundred employees they already had, no outsourcing, yet Americans (poor and middle class) can easily afford a hundred or shares or so.

IMO, Wealthy Americans are waiting for India and China to have their ".com boom" like we had before fall 2000. It WILL happen this decade as those economies are booming and they are finally getting their internet structure in place. It's old news to us, but for the Chinese and Indians and others, all this stuff is what they have been waiting for.

Do your research on REDF and India's internet providers, or China's, you will see the pattern (gains and expansion in services) we had, and yes, they trade on OUR NASDAQ.
