Quote:
Most of the commentary I've read so far about the loss of Google Reader has been about its use as an RSS client. But that's a red herring. The real victims were companies that had planned in 2005 and 2006 to build RSS sync engines. Google stomped them out of business like Godzilla sweeping through Tokyo.

When are they going to improve that Search function [upper left] watching over everything we say here?

edit: What blocked Microsoft from complete domination was Free & Open source software, Linux in particular [Raspian in this instance]. Gates bolted and went into contraceptive vaccines. Ballmer rode it right into the ground.
