Maybe instead of dragging out a seemingly endless series of customer trust sapping product shutdowns it should just decide what it’s keeping them split the company into what it’s keeping and what it’s killing.
Here’s my prediction of what will finally be left standing:
Search
Search advertising
Maps
Gmail
50% chance they’ll keep their cloud 50% chance it’s already living dead like rackspace.
Everything else will go.
It’s starting to feel like google is in trouble.
