do these trends hurt google more than facebook? >> i think google is in a tough spot. they have a gigantic cash machine in search. they have really done well. investors believe in that strength. they have to keep that running and keep that printing money, and at the same time transition to an entirely new way of advertising and helping users buy and sell things. that is really hard for big, slower companies. younger startups are basically able to move much faster. google will be challenged in the next years to really continue the growth it has had. >> google has made a big acquisitions, facebook has also with oculus, and a drone company, google buying a drone company, a lot of robotics companies. paul, are the moon-shots and acquisitions hurting google's bottom line? >> when google became public, they said, listen, a certain percentage of our expenditures both and operating expenses will be for moon-shots. we will have speculative investments. larry, sergey brin have said that from the day one. some of these will pan out, some will not. google, it is part of their stra

google stock is down in after-hours. is the chairman of ad exchange, and paul, your immediate reaction, cost per clicks are down, but clicks are up. is this all because of mobile? >> it is. google, like most other companies come is trying to manage his business from the desktop to the mobile environment. as the usage moves to mobile, two things happen. number one, the actual usage of the site goes up. as you mentioned, clicks were up 26% at google. the flipside of the coin is advertising pricing on mobile devices comes at a lower price point than the desktop. in the case of google, the cost per click pricing was down nine percent. of mediaike a lot companies, needs to manage the pricing on the ads versus the actual number of ads themselves. >> how serious is this? doesn't matter that cost per click is going down? >> it is relatively serious for google. to keep in place the growth, they need to start winning in mobile. it will take a real serious effort for them to put in place the technology and the people and things tha

you have streaming devices with google and roku. then you have the smart tvs from others and those seem to be from three different camps i wonder if one will emerge. does this help you get around the issues raised by a comcast time warner merger where you will have someone decide what service you get fast and what you don't. >> it's a great question. the first part is that i do think it is true that game consoles clearly survey slightly different audience than a streaming player or a smart tv. it is someone whose primary purpose for purchasing the device is a game or playing games. the prices higher. you do not see a $100 console. video is important but it's an adjunct to the gaming experience. take a streaming player and video is the first thing that people are looking to. the audience, the demographic, they're looking to either pull back on cable subscription or augment service with on-demand services and it's a slightly different market going out and buying these products and the price ranges from $35 to chromecast to $99 for ama
