    Google 'in exclusive AOL talks'

    Google is after a stake in AOL, and following an announcement of it being in talks with AOL, its share prices rocketed.
    Shares in Google surged more than 7% to highs of $435.20 as reports of the talks emerged.

    Time Warner has seen its share price plunge since 2000 - sinking from highs above $85 to around $18 currently - and has come under pressure from investors to shake things up.

    Incidentally, at close on Friday, Google's shares were at $430.15. A stock market expert* had the following to say: "holy crap!"
