"5 Products That Should Fear Google's Next Killing Spree"
"Google CEO Larry Page is in a pruning mood. In a "spring cleaning" last week, Google killed five products, most prominently Google Reader, and began phasing out... "
You do remember this, I'm sure.
"If Google sees a beloved, impactful, but less-than-blockbuster product like Reader as something to prune then there's plenty more brush to clear. Here are five obvious candidates. I'd hate to see some of these products go, but they seem at risk given Google's current priorities:"
One of the 5 being....
"Blogger: When created by Evan Williams in 1999, seven
years before Williams co-founded Twitter, Blogger was bar none the
easiest way to create and maintain a blog. But the world has moved on.
Rival network Tumblr has social features that vastly outmatch Blogger’s,
while WordPress is much easier to customize and has a robust
development and design community supporting it. As with Google Groups,
the only reason Google may want to keep Blogger around is to preserve
the old content and avoid a PR backlash. But Google could easily put a
freeze on new blogs and posts."
