I’ve heard this meme repeated before, but is there any example of when it actually worked for them? Is there a single google product that was originally one of many internally and is now the market leader?
I can only think of counter examples... everywhere google spreads too thin they lose market share to competitors. Messaging is the prime example.
- oblio 9y agoI guess you're agreeing with me? I can't tell :)
- chatmasta 9y agoYeah we definitely agree. You were citing Google's strategy, which I agree is there strategy -- I'm just wondering if anyone has an example of when it worked.
- saint_fiasco 8y agoMaybe it happens behind the scenes. If they have several engineering teams working on different data mining algorithms, the user is not going to notice the paradox of choice, the brand dilution and so on, because it's an internal product.
