Sam Sethi at Vecosys floats a very interesting Google acquisition rumor:

“I have just heard from a VERY trusted source that__ Google is buying Feedburner__ in order to get into the rapidly evolving RSS Ad market. The delay in announcing the deal, I am told is solely due to the delay in closing out the DoubleClick deal.”
