The only area Google has really killed in is search, PPC and maybe a couple of other things. Everything else ranges from pretty good to horrible (but not killer.) Personally, I use Gmail more than any other Google service but I bet Gmail doesn't have the same dominance as their search does.
My opinion is certainly debatable, but the point is that Google does not automatically dominate every area they get into and some of their services are terrible.
Also, I am pretty sure Microsoft has tried the "whole army" thing with search and look at where that has got them.
- abl 18y agoI agree - it seems like their products have so much potential but they are not improving upon them, not taking advantage of the whole "release often" paradigm, which in my opinion is easier to do with SaaS. Maybe easier said than done though.... With Google Sites for example, users are clamoring for features, in fact there seems to be a consensus on which lacking features are most important, yet no word or ETA's from Google.. I got a response back regarding the premium edition of Google Sites, seems like the only premium feature available now is that each user gets extra 500MB disk space.. For $50 / user, thats hardly "premium" in my opinion, unless I hear otherwise.
