百度跻身科技行业7大增长明星行列

Priceline

    比尔•夏特纳应该会很高兴。因为这位前《星战》演员被旅游网站Priceline请去做了一次代言，而现在这家公司的股票已经被估到了每股1000美元，这是连谷歌（Google）都没有达到过的高度。去年Priceline实现了14.81亿美元的盈利。另外它还斥资18亿美元收购了拥有强劲移动战略的劲敌Kayak，为自己的发展道路扫清了头号威胁。

    另外，Priceline还于2004年收购了国际酒店预订网站Bookings.com，延续着海外扩张的势头。事实上，2012年，来自海外市场的预订额占了这家公司所有酒店预订额的80%。

Priceline

    Bill Shatner should be pleased. Priceline (PCLN) — which employed the ex-Star Trek actor to be its advertising persona — wowed market-watchers as its stock edged close to a $1,000 valuation, a feat not even managed by Google. The travel site made $1.481 billion in profits in the past year. Its purchase of arch rival Kayak for $1.8 billion rid it of a serious competitor with a robust mobile strategy.

    Bookings.com, an international hotels reservation site acquired in 2004, keeps on expanding abroad. In fact the international market accounted for 80% of the company's bookings in 2012.
