Firstly it’s a big company but it’s not that big. Obviously that’s a lot of money but eg in 2006, there were over 200 companies worth more than $30B[1] Secondly in 2004, the company mostly only did search on the internet, advertising on search terms, and adwords, whereas nowadays google do all sorts of things all over different industries. The google of today is much larger in terms of employees, market cap, and size than it was in 2004.
