I think they bought more. These are just the ones big enough that they disclose them.


Not sure. Here's the relevant quote:

"During the year ended December 31, 2007, we also completed seventeen other acquisitions [beyond Doubleclick and Postini]. Three of these transactions were accounted for as asset purchases ... as the acquired companies were considered to be development stage enterprises. The remaining fourteen transactions were accounted for as business combinations."
