igoogle died because it was developed in kirkland and wasn't under marissa so it threatened her iron grip on the homepage. the stated reason internally they killed reader was they couldn't spare the headcount and nobody wanted to maintain it to boot. obvious bullshit

The Management posted:google was jealous. they were doing a ton of work trying to track and correlate users across sites, and here comes Facebook and people will just *give* them all the information they want. age, religion, relationship status, education level, and a whole network of relations. things that had to be algorithmically guessed using big data was just there, freely offered. Facebook spends less money on traffic acquisition and gets paid more for their ads. 💯% correct. The fact that when you hit google.com rn for a web search you're probably logged is the reason google didn't care at all the fb feed style frontend died.
