I've never worked at Google, but... didn't Larry Page announce a full-blown program to fight that like 3-4 years ago? Work on features/depth rather than new products?

Perhaps it was launched but it literally didn't matter whether that product went on to be successful.

  That is ironically insightful.

  At least he got that promotion, though.

He can launch programs all he wants, but unless that trickles down to management, and the incentives are aligned to at least reward iterative development as much as launching new products, it's not going to change anything.

  Seems like he should be in the power of defining the reward structure at Google though.

    He should have a bit of say in that, yeah. But if he didn't use any of that influence, then it wouldn't happen.
