And it’s fair to say that is happening. Among its recent mobile deals, Google’s venture arm has invested in Appurify, Apportable, Cluster, MessageMe, Osito, Sold and Uber.

“And a lot of deals that aren’t coming to us as mobile deals are turning out to be,” the Android co-founder and Google Ventures partner said in an interview.
