    "Harry Potter" author and the founders of Google joined Forbes list of billionaires

    NEW YORK (Reuters) - "Harry Potter" author J.K. Rowling and the founders of web engine Google joined Forbes magazine's list of world billionaires in a year where booming stock markets fattened the bankrolls of the rich.
    Rowling, once an unemployed single mother, saw her wealth rise to $1 billion after the publication of the latest "Harry Potter" novel and the success of the wizardly character as a movie franchise, the magazine said on Thursday.

    And with Google becoming the Internet search engine of choice among the tech savvy, company founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page also saw their fortunes reach $1 billion apiece.

              Harry Potter kicks ass. Why couldnt I have thought of a geeky kid with magic powers who wants to tap his friend.

              Google is the only SE I use, but it has been lagging lately for good results.
