That's right, everyone. Everyone is Groupon's copycat. Of course, its most formidable opponent is LivingSocial, which is rumored to have Groupon within its sights – but it's hardly the only one grabbing onto the group buying trend. AOL, Yahoo, Google, Facebook, Bing, and The New York Times have all launched competitor services. It's too early to tell how they will fare, but Google and Facebook are likely to experience at least mild success. This in turn will up Groupon's value and contribute to the local deals bubble, which is becoming an exceedingly crowded and chaotic market.
