Google abandons everything it seems. Even google developed stuff and often out of the blue. iGoogle. Picasa. Google+. Google Play Music. It’s like a finicky child that quickly gets bored with new toys

Wave before Google plus. Google Reader. Here is a pretty big list: killedbygoogle.com

Yep. I think that was the source I was looking at. Many of those ideas still seem pretty cool and I didn’t even know they existed. What a waste :/

Pebble died for this.

Pebble died. Fitbit bought its ashes.

My wife still loves her pebble color. Fitbit didn't have to kill it.

Pebble went out of business and Fitbit bought it's software. It didn't buy it's hardware. Pebble killed pebble.
