A flurry of announcements (OK, two) from Google over the weekend, including a deal with Clear Channel and a planned $3.1 billion purchase of DoubleClick that already has competitors crying foul. So far, it's all good for Google. True, $3.1 bil is a lot for DoubleClick, but MS's interest drove up the asking price, no doubt. As this story notes, the DoubleClick deal has also driven up stock prices for former DC rivals Real Media and Aquantative.
