And it didn’t work. What makes you think it’ll work this time?

  Chrome was also heavily marketed, and that worked just fine.

    Because it's good. When firefox started slowly killing xul and the clusterfuck called IE stopped being the top (rabid) dog, a new kid had to come along. Google+ seemed like an afterthought, a way to create a facebook clone without creating a facebook clone.

      Google+ was given the most importance of any project within Google as far as I know.

        Politically, it's given importance, but users didn't see it that way, unlike chrome. It just goes to show that an exec pushing a project doesn't mean much when it's a shit project.
