They probably don’t dog food anything they build. Usually the number one culprit in any industry.

- maltalex 6y agoDogfooding isn't a silver bullet. Remember Google Buzz [0]? It's been used successfully within Google for a while before being released. It turned out to be a disaster partially due to the fact that it was built (or iterated on) with Google's internal users in mind.

- runawaybottle 6y agoBut Google Buzz, if tested internally, was well ahead of Slack and slack-like chat applications currently available (as expected for a chat application tested within the context of a company). Someone is lacking proper vision at Google. Hindsight is 20/20 of course.
