When I saw that Google bought Doubleclick... I almost dropped my coffee.
Google is WAYYYYYYYY to powerful, and it is going to hurt small businesses.
Here's just a few examples:
1) Google has started offering all kinds of free web tools to users, which will
put many of the internet businesses that sold these services out of business.
Just take a look at the free web and desktop tools that Google now offers:

You know that list will just keep increasing.
2) Google already monopolizes the online advertising world, with
Google ads showing up on blogs and websites everywhere. It seems that
most of the sites I visit, have Google ads on them. (Shoot.... I do it too).
3) Google is buying into other forms of media such as newspapers and
television
Now... they are acquiring Doubleclick, one of the largest online
marketing companies for 3.1 billion !
Google is becoming way to powerful. They are going to have a backlash
if they are not careful.
