7-Year Updated Ajax Timeline of Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, Amazon Acquisitions (shmula.com)

The first thing I noticed is that they're missing Zenter, but the timeline is still cool because it starts in January 2001 with updates through this August. Any more that they've missed?


The timeline is kinda neat, but it woulda been a lot better with an accompanying list with sort controls.

Pretty good example of using AJAX to do something that you could've done easier and better without it.


some of them seem to be hidden at the bottom of the timeline. I can see the very top half of the text, but not the whole lot. (FF+Mac)


TextPayMe is on that list. Isnt this the acquisition YC still cant "talk" about?


Arnie St. => Amie St.

Also, that was an investment, not an acquisition.


Viaweb is missing...


Viaweb was sold in 1999 if I remember correctly.
