Around '08 or '09 is when IMO it became visible from the outside that Google's culture had shifted radically.
I've read comments before claiming that when Google acquired DoubleClick, Google became more DoubleClick than the other way around. Basically, that the Google we liked was destroyed by that acquisition, and something new emerged. That certainly squares with the timeline.
- moffkalast 4y ago> DoubleClick Inc. was an advertisement company that developed and provided Internet ad serving services from 1995 until its acquisition by Google Checks out alright.
- Jerrrry 4y agoGoogle buying Double Click is actually the most profitable acquisition in the history of business, nearly dwarfing the Robber Baron era and the Russians selling us Alaska.
- ambicapter 4y agoMakes sense that they would become the dominant culture in Google then, no?
- mathteddybear 4y agoNo, Search Ads dwarfs it.
