Yes, some speculation I am reading centers on the Snapseed app that we
have discussed here from time to time. If it has 9 million users at $5
a pop, that's some good income and an Android version was demo'd
earlier this year. (Android being Google's now, it seems that they
could leverage or incorporate Snapseed into a Google phone (or any
phone using the Android operating system). Google is also likely to
incorporate Snapseed image editing into their Google+ product
(competing, but way behind Facebook/Instagram).
I think our biggest concerns should be: What happens to their
standalone products for Lightroom/Photoshop/Aperture. Will development
on them continue?

I think this is key. FB bought Instagram, Snapseed has potential (and
better editing set) for integration into the G+ flow to ~compete. I use
the tilde because the G+ photo experience is light years ahead of FB's.
Continued dev on the other Nik product line should be fine. They are too
good to gut, and I'd wager Google is also looking closely at onOne,
because who wouldn't like a slice of the PS/LR pie?
