They drove competitors out of business with their superior offerings. Then they dropped it. News feed services are very light compared to forums.
G. spent millions on Sketchup. Had a Sketchup "Evangelist". Books were written. Lot's of excitement. Sold it overnight to a company that makes fishing equipment. There's something like 40 or more projects in the Guugle graveyard. Except for search, I don't think the G is really committed to anything. -- Mark -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
