Very insightful article from Ben. Although the conglomerates are not in vogue at the moment several conglomerates dominate the business world: GE, Siemens, etc... Actually I see a lot of parallels between Googles maturation and say GE's. Both started with a niche product but then diversified into more complex systems as they matured.
