yea lets root for facebook, the company with the most personal information on everyone, provided by their own dumb friends and family, including databases of tagged photos for future facial recognition. surely they can be trusted more than google

ok actually google drive is pretty sw8 its not perfect but goddamn if it doesnt suit my needs for free google is jumping the shark though, buying robot companies and google glass. they will fail spectacularly but hopefully goog drive will still work google is doing the world a favor though by rounding up all the insufferables and keeping them in their googleplex daycares

oh, the screen it jammed in front of you, with 4 distinct clicks to properly dismiss without accidentillay merging, even before the ad started playing?

gmail and youtube used to be good but both have gone through piles of lovely redesigns that get worse and worse each try. they also closed igoogle and reader which i liked and used they are just lovely advertising company with bad products these days, but everyone is reliant on them because they are systemic at a lot of homes/places. relying on people being too lazy to switch to superior products works for a while but in the long run, not exactly a great plan

facebook is just one horse of many that will help put google into the ground, and currently executing the bestquote:This really makes it sound like Vic was essentially fired. I wonder how much Facebook's recent success in monetizing mobile is at the root of this? For a long time the conventional wisdom was that there was no money in mobile at all and it was a huge problem. Now Facebook is killing it, and Google's answer seems to have missed the mark. Although this article is all loose rumors and speculation, if you piece it together the picture feels believable: Google is seriously worried their bet on G+ is wrong. Until Facebook starting doing big numbers Vic had the benefit of the doubt, but now that it's clear in stark numerical fashion that Facebook is actually increasing it's lead over Google it's causing a serious rethink. google failed at social and now a $150 billion company exists when some portion of their market cap could have flowed to google if they werent incompetent and microsoft-like in resting on their laurels. they then spent years with google+, integrating it into all of their products trying to recreate facebook and get a slice of that pie. meanwhile facebook saw the writing on the wall and has been aggressive about buying the properties where users are increasingly spending most of their time (as well as not caring about making facebook.com the center of their universe, as is evident in their willingness to unbundle it). larry just figured this out a few weeks ago after a couple of FBs quarterly earnings sank in and fired vic gundotra.

its not just that that google's CPC is tanking because mobile ads are inherently less profitable (which is true as of now) but they're also losing real market share of ad dollars to facebook. facebook's CPC and CPM are rising

the thing I'll never get about g+ is why they had to be so up-front about stuff like merging accounts, making you use your real name, etc. letting people use their BS internet names [or even multiple ones under the same account, whoa] would have been a competitive advantage over FB and they'd still have all that juicy usage data anyway without annoying people and souring them to the idea [g+ has such a bad interface, particularly on mobile they never had much of a chance anyway]
