A Google owned WWW?

In all, Google has purchased or agreed to purchase 11 (or more) companies or technologies in the past year. Google usually doesn't release financial terms of small deals, but the big ones are substantial: $1.65 billion for YouTube and $3.1 billion for DoubleClick (the latter deal is pending a federal investigation). A little bit more than a year ago, Google spent $1 billion for a 5% stake in AOL.

A list of the past year or so:
DoubleClick
Panoramio
GreenBorder Technologies
Tonic Systems
Marratech
Adscape Media
Trendalizer
Gapminder
Endoxin
YouTube
JotSpot
Neven Vision (for Picasa)

No Way!

DawnM says:

Hmmm... seems my post didn't take. I'll try again. I don't think that Google wants to take over the web, I think they just want to be the best on the web! ;-)

Posted by Eric Schmidt, Chairman and CEO

I'm pleased to share the news that we completed our acquisition of DoubleClick today. Although it's been nearly a year since we announced our intention to acquire DoubleClick last April, we are no less excited today about the benefits that the combination of our two companies will bring to the online advertising market.
