10 Google projects that failed

say "Google" that seems synonymous with "success." However, should the giant in Mountain View are also some projects have crashed, Google justifies its policy of researching and developing all kinds of initiatives. However, do not forget that these are projects that reached the public, so it took months of testing and development. The products that succeed in Google are those who find the balance between revenue generation and utility for users. Therefore, in their unsuccessful projects, one of these elements should be misconceived. EWeek magazine found in a collection with ten Google Audio Failures:
Lively: a three dimensional universe in which users could create an avatar to interact with other avatars. Found no welcome or between companies or between individuals, so Google it closed earlier this year.
SearchMash: an application that allowed reorder search results, among other functions. The problem is that Google placed in a separate web, without advertising. He closed the service in autumn 2008, replacing SearchWijki, where you can also modify the search results.
Google Notebook: a kind of notebook that allowed to collect and organize information in a document accessible via the Internet. Rather than suppress it, Google has abandoned this project, relying on tools similar but more advanced work, such as Docs, Sites and Tasks.
Google Video, a service that became meaningless when buying YouTube, but still operational. Google looks to give other applications, such as offering streaming movies.
Mashup Editor: a tool that has also been deprecated by another project of the house, App Engine. However, there is much competition in the sector of the platforms for building applications, for example, Amazon Web Services, or those offered by Salesforce.com.
Google Catalogs: Who would ever find brochures on the Web? Especially when Google has in hand a much more important to scan books from around the world.
Dodgeball: A mobile social network that Google acquired in May 2005, utilizing the user's geographic position to locate close friends and send them messages. Along with Orkut and Zingku, shows that social networks are not strong Google.
Google Print Ads: draft print ads in newspapers in paper sank like a fish out of water.
Google Radio Ads: More of the same: Google overestimated their technological capabilities outside their usual ecosystem (Internet) or was met with disbelief or rejection of traditional media. Shared
Staff: an attempt to enter the field of social bookmarking, Delicious style. The low acceptance has come to incorporate the concept to the Google Reader.
