Google has stopped being about "organizing the world's information" a long time ago. Now its more about how can I make everything look like Plus even if it breaks the application and how can Plus be a Facebook clone, and how can I drag everyone to Plus.
A distinguishing characteristic of erstwhile Google used to be: get them out of your system with what they need, as fast as you can, and be so seamless that people want to come back. This was a welcome change compared to Microsoft's: make leaving so annoying that nobody dares to. Even that has changed.
This seems to be well correlated with Page taking over Schmidt's duties.
