Google never wants to be a portal like Yahoo!. I doubt that they will ever adopt that type of a model However, they are very good at innovating existing technologies and creating free options. Advertising though as a revenue model only has so much headroom before it won't support their efforts. However, that too is an unknown, as Google gains more web market share they will also increase their ad availability. As long as conversion stays in a respectable range so that the average business can afford to support Google it will maintain.
