Here is a great Infographic that maps out most of Google acquisitions since they started buying companies back in 2001. Interestingly, Google CEO Eric Schmidt mentioned earlier this year that they were back on the hunt and ramping up acquisitions to just over one per week. For any company, that is a ridiculously tough thing to do, but for Google it must be very painful to maintain the pace of buy-outs, and to actually find enough good tech startups to buy!
The Infographic categorises the acquisitions into three columns; building revenue streams, cutting competitor revenue streams and the ones that do a bit of both.
