Top Tech Acquisitions Of 2009 (techcrunch.com)

What's interesting to me is that the acquisition market seems to be warming up again. It doesn't surprise me. There's a lot of large companies that have slashed payroll, cut costs, and now have a bunch of extra cash on hand. Those companies need to start growing and expanding in new directions soon.

I think acquisitions are going to be happening more and more frequently for startups. Parallel to that, with some high profile exits in the last few months, I think that angel/VC money is going to start flowing more freely.
