Google-eyed at Google

Article Abstract:

The Internet search-engine company, Google's Australian operation, unlike the US business, has to face severe setbacks. The competition from its rival, Overture Australia, who has shoved Google from its agreements with Ninemsn, the biggest Australian Internet publisher, and the company's decision with regard to the News Interactive deal, are creating tougher impediments to be crossed in its way to success.
