twelve hundred people, working full time on a product people only interact with when they are forced to by google bundling another product in with it. thats like one fifth of the total facebook employees.

quote:We’ve heard that the acquisition of WhatsApp by Facebook may have been a factor in the phasing out of Gundotra’s grand experiment. There was a perception that Google had missed the “biggest acquisition in the social space.” Though another source tells us that Google knew what was up with WhatsApp but simply didn’t want to pay out for it. everything is primed and ready for google to start making value destroying acquisitions. they just got a new class of shares that wont decrease eric, larry, and sergay's voting control if they start issuing for big buys so they're gonna be amped to open up the wallet. im so fuckin hard

google+ photos is the only nice thing about google+. i'm glad they're going to continue to innovate in other ways instead of letting their offerings stagnate like mobileme. mobilefail if you ask me, imo.

He didn't give a reason for leaving, but according to a report from TechCrunch, the likely reason is a major shakeup for Google's social network. scroogled again !!
