Let's not forget that had gtalk, which could have dominated easily. Over ten year lead wasted on that one.
Gtalk was brilliant! When they launched it my appreciation for Google grew tenfold. It was so un-enterprisey and it just worked! Shortly thereafter they fixed their offering by launching the very Enterprise-friendly Wave.
Mmmmmm, Wave. (drooling dead-eyes Homer impression).
At this point I don't even know what's their main chat/video product. Meet? Hangouts? Duo? I have all three on my phone for some reason but still end up using Zoom and Whatsapp
But first they have to make their own programming languages and frameworks.
and don't forget launching an abysmal cloud gaming service that was DoA!
