Check Out Google Checkout

Garett Rogers has discovered some interesting domain information that looks related to Google and a possible checkout process. Googlecheckout for the .net, .org, and .info domains has been registered to a firm called DNStiniation, Inc, through Google's favorite registrar MarkMonitor, according to a deal between those two companies can offer PayPal payments. A rollout of Google Checkout as a shopping cart would mean Google will have to offer better terms than PayPal does for merchants. A pricing war would not benefit eBay, as shares of the company have hovered in the $30s and already has disclosed an outlook for its second quarter 2006 earnings that is below analyst estimates.
