“Project” also make it sound like a ongoing effort of sorts, and not a (finished) product.
- azurezyq 8y agoI think you read it correctly. As described in the post, it's a "technical test", not a product. The gap between a "test" and a product is huge. I don't think it's wise to dump resources into building a product based on unproven technology.
- concernedctzn 8y agoTotally valid criticisms
- vatueil 8y agoI think there's something to be said for choosing an obvious and informative name such as "Project Stream" over a flashier but non-intuitive name. Also, at least for now it really isn't a finished product. Perhaps they'll re-brand if the test pans out and they actually start selling a service, or maybe they'll just keep the moniker like Project Fi has.
- remir 8y agoI'm sure if the test is successful, they will change the name or integrate it with Youtube Gaming.
