Not saying that it won't be on the list however. Most (as in 90%) of the killed things on this list is something Google didn't really have a long term plan or was some R&D experiment that a product guy who just got a bunch of engineers together to make something to see if there was a market demand. Something like Stadia had a huge budget with a long term plan that Google has in planned and hired so many people possible three times the workers in the RUclips division to redesign RUclips so it works with Stadia. Plus what we're saying about Stadia sucking right now is like saying when Steam first came out everyone hated it due to variety of reason, it crashed, friendslist didn't work properly, had to have it just to play CS1.6, broadband was still in it's infancy to the major public, and/or an idea that downloading games instead of having a physical copy was something people prefered. So it's the same thing here with different types of complaints. Edit adding this in from the replies I've gotten: Pricing can always be changed on a push of a button once they have a better monotization method in place. It's doesn't work like "it doesn't have exclusivity now so it'll never have exclusive games." Here's my argument speaking with a bunch of Developers who don't necessarily develop games but understand it. Stadia is a platform that allows developers to makes on it too, not just a distribution platform. Stadia defeats the hardware problem limitation that games have today where developers has to think about the lowest hardware possible for a user on how much calculations can go on screen. If you say having a space battle with 10k players on your own computer on screen, do you believe that your computer can handle that or do you think a server as large as Google's be more likely be able to handle it? It has to think of all the calculation occuring on your own computer. Not only that, it has to send that information ALONG with your input to a server which tries to mix with all other calculation that has to think from all other players that's in that same game. THEN it has to send it back to every player along with player inputs from other players. With stadia, all it's doing is you uploading an input without having to upload calculated gutshot or visibility with the whole peeker/camper delay involved and you're downloading just a "video feed" of that. While all the calculation is only happening server side. With the integratration of RUclips since it's happening on Google's servers. You can livestream it without encoding the video on your end. Maybe a camera feed but that's better than encoding the game. I'm sure OBS or other streaming software will figure something out. Technology will find it's way to get better. That's why passionate developers are developers. They find a problem and attempt to solve it. Internet especially in America will find it's way. I live with a datacap myself and that is pretty much my bottleneck. While my friend who just got Stadia was going to test it just to shit on it just had a hard time doing so other than the obvious mostly looking like it's a very good video feed (not feeling native). It's Google's best interest to do this because LiveStreaming. Google and Facebook relies mostly on Ads. When people start adopting game streaming as time goes on, Google will benefit from it due to RUclips Gaming Streaming video ads. You can say Microsoft Azure and Amazon(Twitch) AWS can do it too. That's true. However where does Amazon and Microsoft make most of their money. Definately not ads. Amazon it's their store, Microsoft is software. At the time of this post Twitch may hold majority of Market and people think Mixer is next but the marketing feels like it but surprise surprise RUclips Gaming Live is actually second. You can look this up everywhere.
Man, I was do excited for Phoneblocks concept and then they started working with Google and it started geting less and less modular to the point Google had to kill it cause they wanted to make it event less modular to the point you couldn't honestly call it modular and they knew it wouldn't sell. I really hope Fairphone will become a basis for future modular phones. I'm not buying it yet thou, at this point it has barely any customization and price to value ratio is so bad you could buy normal phone and pay for regular repairs and still have some left. I'm hoping they'll either drop their "ethics" schtick and with that their prices or someone will start producing parts and modules for Fairphones for cheaper.
@@doctordothraki4378 Yeah but see now.... They're also all different attachments, no? carrying all those attachments gotta take up a lot of space. Idk. I always thought the phone wasn't worth it, plus the cost of attachments and all that. But I definitely thought it was innovative, interesting, and I was pretty impressed by it. My friend had that phone, and an Alexa Speaker attachment for it. I thought it was weird as hell
NO. I'm sure they didn't, But like he said there are 200ish and can only mention a few in this video as quick examples. And technically google glass isn't dead, They still make them for business and medical science use.
It was by far my favourite social media platform due to both the people on it and it's technical features. Still to this day I've not found a decent replacement.
I liked Google Reader a LOT, which was my go-to feed aggregator. Naturally I was sad to see it go. Fortunately, something similar came along... Feedly.
The one thing that google killed that really ticked me off is the nexus series smartphone. Mid to high tier devices that were reasonbly priced with good designs (specially the nexus 4 and 5). Not that overpriced pixel bull we have today.
As the IT pro in charge of my boss's businesses they needed a real-time & simple way to communicate between stores, we were already using G Suite so Hangouts was the natural option. I showed them how to use it. It's been working great for over a year and it's easy to teach (even tech challenged) people how to use it. I really hope they don't kill it off.
I am also addicted to Hangouts; it works really well as a good old SIP client when needed so that you can call actual phones (mobile or land line) and the prices are really good, better than Skype or traditional SIP service providers around these necks of the woods. Too bad Google seems hellbent into killing it. It is almost as if they want to punish us for liking and using their products!! But if I understand correctly it is going to survive - possibly in a different shape - for corporate users of the G Suite.

This is a common pattern with tech startups that grow to astronomical heights. After Uber got tens of millions of dollars in investor money back in 2013(ish), they started hiring a LOT of software engineers. And a lot of newely hired senior engineers wanted to have their own baby project inside the company (mostly for bragging rights and to improve their resume), so they started to pitch these ideas to managment, and a lot of them got greenlit and small teams were assigned to make them happen. In Uber’s case it was mostly internal tools (build automation and toolchains, containerization etc.), but the funny thing is, everything they were developing in-house basically already existed and was available for free. During the pitching phase, the sw engineers talked about how the existing tools “were not good enough for Uber’s scale” which is total bullshit. And the fact that they were building their own developer tools actually slowed down development on the actual Uber service, because their in-house tools were so shit, other developers complained about using them. It took 2 years for their in-house Docker clone to support persistent memory. Anyway, I think something similiar is going on at Google, but with end products.

It was a fun place for those that stuck with it. Due to how a lot of the "cool kids" thought G+ was bad, you often knew a lot of the people in the website, making it a fairly friendly environment. I miss it. Was a good place overall.
I always thought G+ had a sort of nice charm to it, so I was disappointed to see it go. But really, the way that it lined up your feed made it so that there was always a new piece of content poking up from the bottom, and that ticked me off a bit, so eh.

chromecast audio was a great product, still use mine everyday
RIP google url shortener.
Remember when they forced you to get Google +?
A video on every messaging app Google has launched and killed.
It's a shame Google killed Gtalk and quit the XMPP Standards Foundation.
Buzz, Wave, G+, Glasses, the Nexus name...come on, who wrote this? Such a deep ocean full of pearls.
I remember Google video, ah the nostalgia...
Google Reader is missing on your list.
Google Wave was pretty awesome, I beta tested that.
Honestly Google's a serial killer.
See ya next year when stadia dies
wasn't it dead on arrival?
@@Mic_Glow I wish, but no, people are interested in it.
Aaaaaand it's dead
What the heck is wrong with you guys... See ya next year, when fucking Windows finally dies. See ya next year when the bad consoles like Xbox finally die. Just shut up
^Google employee crying in every comment about Stadia
Please do a part 2 of this topic.
Why did they have to kill off Google+ sure it had an exploit
@That_llama_in_a_tuxedo it "Technically" still exists it's just now only available for G-Suite customers where businesses would technically would use it
I genuinely can't look at that moustache anymore... 🙈
hangouts is still alive I'm still using it.
RIP Google Talks....you were much loved :(
Talk about Project ARA! I was so bummed it got axed :(
I remember when Google+ was a thing and everyone hated it.
Like those "Bob RUclips Comment" movement thing when google 'merged' G+ with youtube
It was a fun place for those that stuck with it. Due to how a lot of the "cool kids" thought G+ was bad, you often knew a lot of the people in the website, making it a fairly friendly environment.
I miss it. Was a good place overall.
I WAS SOOOOOOOO SAD WHEN I FOUND OUT THAT PROJECT ARA WAS AXED ):
Riley: *pun*
Me: haha lol that was funny lol can't wait for the next
I always thought G+ had a sort of nice charm to it, so I was disappointed to see it go. But really, the way that it lined up your feed made it so that there was always a new piece of content poking up from the bottom, and that ticked me off a bit, so eh.
Google strategy: fail it until you'll make it
I still use Google Hangouts daily lol.
I award Riley 10 points for that Princess Bride reference.
I knew him and James were my favorites for a reason.
So this episode was filmed in November
And was seen by public in December
*U guys have a latency of a month*
*What a shame LTT*
Now that's negative latency!
3:24 Ma man Dennis was having the time of his life at that moment.
Last time I was this early Project Ara is a thing
I'm just sitting here waiting for Project Ara Ara
JJAB91 same. You’re a man of culture as well.
Now that's something I would like to know, failures not just success stories. Exhilarating! 🕵️
R.I.P. Google+
Others wouldn't get it, but it was a great community on there.
F
I used to have a Google+ account. Btw, did you know that the comment dislike button stopped working because of Google+ being integrated into RUclips?
@@saturniunyttech679 No but totally believe it! I remember how wild that time was... people were not happy about that whole g+ / RUclips thing
@@Cherb123456 just before RUclips integrated g+ into yt, the comment dislikes actually worked. You could press dislike, and it would show the number of dislikes.
We need to discuss the 'tache...
"Do you guys know of a different product?"
Oh you mean STADIA?! lol
Well new people are joining everyday. And majority of all stadia players are having a great experience.. I don't see it dead by far. There are some missing features a that they need to fix
Google Glasses are dead when I say they're dead. You heard me.
Techlengthy?
;)
Google Reader - A RSS feed reader. It worked so well and I loved it... Without it, now I'm using Feedly...
Stadia incoming in 5, 4, 3......
Very smooth ad transition there Riley. Linus should take notes.
Google Stadia upcoming in the next episodes...
Definitely not, they planned way into the future and invested a lot in it. If they wanna kill it, they would have already done that when it was named Project Stream.
@@Fabian-_- just some dumb people just want a new gaming service to fail when majority of people actually enjoying it
@@faiyazhussain9333 jep, they're all just 'I've heard it's bad / it's bad' and they didn't even try. And everyone who uses it enjoys it, tho there are some with problems, but they most often simply have a crappy internet connection
@@Fabian-_- Except for it's going to die anyway, guaranteed. Whatever Sony is planning will be much better, and even if that doesn't kill it then there is SIMPLY ZERO CHANCE that it will survive Xcloud. You need to stop fanboying over a lost cause.
@@sethadkins546 dude, there are no big news about Xcloud. Is it even alive? You my dude are fanboying over Xcloud, it's as simple as that. It's still in Beta if I recall correctly, but correct me there. Did you try it? If yes, did you try Stadia? If you didn't try both, then please shut up. I admit, I didn't try XCloud, but you can't bash Stadia if you didn't try it. And if you didn't even try XCloud yet, please get the fuck out of here
I still can't forgive them how they devoured and killed Sparrow.
Same feeling about Gizmo5
