Calendar is a Gmail add on.
The docs suite was essentially acquired via writely they didn't build it in house.
The point I'm really making is that just because Google enters a space doesn't mean they will dominate. They don't at a lot of the projects they attempt.
- icey 16y agoIt's a fair assessment to say that Google doesn't automatically dominate every space they enter; but it doesn't mean they can't. It seems to hinge on how important they determine the space to be. I can't think of a product they've backed and promoted heavily that hasn't dominated the space it occupied. Wave is probably the black sheep of the bunch, but it just got opened to the public today.
