* Google’s (GOOG) third quarter revenues surpassed predictions, with $9.72 billion. The Internet giant also reported that its recently-launched social platform, Google+, has more than 40 million users, though the company didn’t clarify how many of them are active. (Fortune)

* Hulu has decided not to sell itself after all. “Since Hulu holds a unique and compelling strategic value to each of its owners, we have terminated the sale process,” the company said in a statement on its blog. “Our focus now rests solely on ensuring that our efforts as owners contribute in a meaningful way to the exciting future that lies ahead for Hulu.” (CNNMoney)
