dodgeball isn't mentioned there. unless it comes under another name? |
meetro isn't owned by google |
Wasn't Orkut developed by a Google employee during his employment? |
Hmmm. What is the English translation of "Vorratsgesellschaft"?. That would be it, to answer Phillips question. |
Hmn... Here's my own list, gathered from press releases and different searches on the internet (I love blogs about google!). The URLS are where I found out about each purchase/aquisition or the actual company website. The only one in here that's not technically a purchase is Baidu, in which Google is a part-owner/investor.

Nice list. Though i don't think BearingPoint or Current Communications belong to Google, they are just partnering with them. Also I know you mentioned Hello, which I think is a program created by the company behind Picasa, which isn't mentioned above. |
Yeah, Dan is right. Hello is not a company – merely an IM program with a focus on Photos. |
