It's the typical Google development cycle. Build a great product, don't get enough users, engineers lose interest and boom the product is basically sunset. Years later it is either revived or cancelled outright.
- alekratz 9y agoYup, I'm seeing this with Google sites (sort of) right now. Even though they're rolling out a new version, it's pretty much impossible to get a digest of all pages on the old sites with revisions. There is an API to access this data, but it's behind an amalgam of out-of-date documentation and forgotten APIs. edit: clarification
