Given Eric Schmidt's comment on Google acquiring a company every week ( at le web IIRC), I'd say there still may be a few tricks up GOOG's sleeve before the year ends : )

My thoughts exactly.

I was also impressed that Google could end the year on 12/20! I knew Google had power, but to drop off 3% of the year... that's impressive!

Interesting that they are still doing this since the news lately has been that Larry is cleaning house and getting rid of non-core businesses (not including the longshot type projects such as the driverless cars)

Isn't this a drop in the (tax write-off) bucket for them?

Setup the right incentives and the private financiers will come.
