From http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1vvfxz/google_confirms_their_payments_team_is_working_to/:
Quote
Ariel Bardin, Vice President of Payments @ Google has asked me to facilitate a Google Moderator and pose the question "What would I want Google to do with bitcoin?". He's promised me he will personally review the results and pass it on. Please help me with this and take the time to submit something: What would I want Google to do with bitcoin?
"Me" in the above quote is JasonBored on Reddit by the way.

Anyways, here's the link - you can help in 2 ways:
* Submit an idea (if you have several ideas, just submit several ones - don't mix 3 ideas into 1 submission please and don't re-submit already posted ideas)
and/or
* Vote on existing ideas - especially the random one at the top, not just the highest voted ones that are displayed below.

https://www.bitfinex.com <-- Trade BTC for other currencies and vice versa.

Very cool, I remember back about 10 years ago Google were very good at talking and listening to the webmaster community, at least compared to other companies. It was usually when they were planning changes or rolling out new features shortly.

Great! Now BitPay can announce on their Google+ page that Google is officially accepting bitcoins. <not apologizing for providing humor at my friends at BitPay's expense>

Google Lets Slip That It's Exploring Possible Bitcoin Integration Plans

Seattle Seahawks accepts Google Checkout. Google's considering Bitcoin. Ergo, Seattle Seahawks accepts Bitcoin. That's BitPay's story and they're sticking to it.  Grin They are damn lucky that I love them guys.

This news is really fizzing on reddit. Why is it virtually ignored here? This could be the next big break.

If this is really gonna happen, there will be some shift in decimal point needed for sure. And BTC will be replaced by mBTC at least as a base unit.

Don't know how credible this site is, but they claim to have a statement from Google that says otherwise:

http://thenextweb.com/google/2014/01/23/despite-claims-reddit-suggesting-otherwise-google-says-current-plans-regarding-bitcoin/#!s1CLj

Same comment from Google mentioned here, fairly more credible:

Screw Google, just because it is arrogant, uses us people and our private data as product and has enough money to buy two biggest Bitcoin pools and become able to do a 51% attack.

Also, like any other major US corporations - it sold our privacy to NSA.

I don't want Google to be my slavemaster, do you?

Why do you use their services on your website then (e.g. for fonts)?

It is a bit weird and disappointing to see SO many people not getting the idea of submitting original thoughts and instead supplying the n-th variation of "Bitcoin should be accepted on the Play store/integrated in wallet"...
