Google Inc. has asked the Securities and Exchange Commission to put in motion its initial public offering registration, and the Internet search service is looking at a possible $1.7 million dollar windfall as a result of the offering. Though the company is remaining tight-lipped as to how it may spend the surplus, speculation abounds. Some suggest the company will invest in software development and the diversification of its current services.
