What about Pulse.io? It also redirects to google.com
I believe most of Google's acquisitions redirect to the search engine (unless there's a more appropriate destination).
- ocdtrekkie 8y agoI know meebo.com is another acquisition that leads to a landing page rather than a redirect to Google.com. My guess is who puts what on what server and whether or not it's a redirect depends heavily on who is involved in the post-acquisition work, since Google is a big company. I'm not discounting the possibility that it's innocuous, but it's strange that even among the same acquisition, one domain goes to google.com and one goes to a landing page explaining the acquisition.
