Source: Google In Talks To Acquire Katango
We're hearing that Google is in talks to acquire Katango, the Kleiner-backed startup that uses algorithms to automatically sort your friends into different groups, with very little effort required on the user's part (see our full post on their launch here).Katango would be a very obvious fit for Google (in fact, we hear that Google has been interested in the company since they launched in July). Why? Because Google+ revolves around grouping your friends into different Circles, be it acquaintances, family members, and so on. But at this point, while Google+ is great at telling you who you might know, it doesn't suggest to you which of these Circles to put them in.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/bfXu_D3wybM/
