    The Pfizer-Allegran is one of the most recent mergers and the most expensive with a price tag of $160 billion. To put this figure into perspective, Zacks Investment Research compared this deal with the GDP statistics of many countries. Shockingly, countries such as Serbia, Uruguay, Morocco and Angola do not have GDP numbers exceeding the price of the Pfizer-Allegran deal.

    With two large brands joining forces under one name, this will mean less options for consumers in terms of pricing, amenities and in the preferred guest programs. Both of these companies currently boast impressive loyalty rewards programs, yet Starwood members are wondering how this merger will affect their current rewards they have earned.

    The deal was struck for a number of reasons. First, it provides Marriott much better leverage in negotiations with online travel sites. A recent example of the company struggling to gain leverage with sites was when it negotiated its deal with TripAdvisor. Many analysts saw the deal as a way for Marriott to better position itself when it eventually sat down in contract negotiations with Expedia.

    Many, after this announcement, are left wondering why was this deal made. Business Insider reports that even though EMC still is profitable in the area of data-storage, it could face perilous waters ahead. Most of this uncertainty is due to the increasing number of companies that are sending their data to the cloud through giants such as Google, Microsoft and Amazon.

    DeWolfe denied the offer. Later on, Zuckerberg tried to sell the company once again, this time for $750 million. Yet, to MySpace's modern-day chagrin, this second offer was once again turned down. Many still report that this denial led to MySpace's decline in popularity as it failed to invest heavily in the social media portion of its design and instead channeled its work into its music sharing and listening features.

    A major draw for the launch of HG was the fact that one of its founders is indie film and music celebrity, Zooey Deschanel. The initial burst of interest surrounding the site was akin to the attention received by other lifestyle blogs with famous backers. While you may not have a network television star on speed dial, other types of earned media and cross-promotion can help get the word out about your blog from the beginning.
