Web search giant Google reported a 19-percent increase in profits as cost cutting made up for a decline in online ad spending due to the recession.
Profits rose 19 per cent to $1.48 billion from $1.25 billion a year ago. Revenue rose just 2.9 percent, down from 6.2-percent growth in the first quarter. Excluding sales passed on to partner sites, second-quarter revenue rose to $4.07 billion from $3.9 billion.
