There's nothing proprietary about Groupon, only a large volume of sale people on the ground.

If this aquisition is true, the number 2 & 3 in the sector can attract other buyers (namely YHOO). Just out-pace Groupon in your own demographic or stay within distance and you will probably attract top dollar.

But I can't see where Groupon currently fits with Google though. Maybe they are seeing declines in local Adwords spending?
