Another Google project that they got bored with and gave up on?
The problem is that Google launch new products in about the same way as most animals launch poo.
They now have a reputation for dumping new products out everywhere, so that now nobody is willing to take a bet on using most, or even all, of them.
And then there’s “first mover advantage” where already well known products are hard to take market share from, unless something very obviously better (and that anyone has actually heard of) comes along.
And then there’s the fact that it’s Google, and increasing numbers of people are only willing to “trust” them so far, if at all.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
