Sales Have Slowed To A Trickle On Google’s Chrome Web Store
- mycroftiv 16y agoThe title of the article seems misleading. Apparently the Chrome web store was first launched less than a month ago, so it is a product very close to the origin point of its growth curve and a phrase like "sales have slowed to a trickle" implies a substantial past history of higher volume sales. I think a better description of the data would be "chrome web store has yet to gain sales momentum".
- jkincaid 16y agoGood point. I certainly wasn't trying to be misleading — the "slowed to" was based on my observation immediately after the store launched, when I believe some of the paid apps had higher numbers of installs. However, I don't have the sales figures on those handy (I'd have to ask Google) and it may not be fair to base sales data off the initial launch anyway. I've changed the title to be less ambiguous/misleading.
