What will Google buy next?

In a somewhat surprising move, Google plans to raise an additional $4 billion by offering over 14 million additional shares. The SEC filing says there are currently no agreements or commitments to acquire existing businesses, but clearly Google has plans to continue its growth beyond search.

What about mobile search? Google has apparently acquired Android, a maker of wireless data handsets. It will be interesting to see how Google may use the technology.
