Facebook Pays Microsoft $550 Million For AOL Patents!
World ranking social communicative website Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg will pay to Microsoft Corporation $550 million in cash for hundreds of patents recently sold by AOL. The social networking company's latest move to bulk up its intellectual property in the wake of a lawsuit filed by Yahoo. Microsoft, Amazon, eBay and other top label corporation earlier this month with its more than $1 billion purchase of most of AOL Inc. patent trove. Valuing patents is a complex process as early as possible, and it was not immediately clear whether Microsoft profited from the deal with Facebook.
