  Thats a HUGE list! 😲
  
  one of my friends said she missed the 'testimonials' on Orkut.
  
  PS: No one cares what orkut does, let alone if it even exists or not.

  Openness , games and apps on facebook killed orkut.Google lately allowed games and apps.
  No friends activity was going on facebook.
  One day one of my friend asked me to be team of game Mafia war and neighbor of a game Firmville , no matter you play or not.
  This was a significant way that you can be on social network and play games meanwhile.
  
  I don't know why still Google still improving Orkut!!!

  Its fun to see Google keeping Orkut alive when they themselves have a competing product in G+.

  This is true of many Google products. They sometimes acquire a competing product but still keep both products operational instead of merging them.
  This has happened with youtube and google video as well. For a long time google video hosted its own videos even though youtube was under the google household.

  Most of the Google products have been failures.

  That's not a product. It's a doodle. Google Buzz was a classic failure.

  They are monster in making products... if most of them will succeed Google will be synonym of internet and software.
  take a look a search engine: who use other search engine other than google.com. Microsoft tried on bing a lot but nothing happens.
  Gmail is fastest growing email in personal users.
  Android already beats iOS.
  Adsense and adwords changed the way of internet ads.
  Cloud is coming.
  
  At least some space should be there on internet other than google. 😀

  Something to think over -
  Initially when google started out till many years it didn't create it's own content. It only linked to other people's content.
  For example google news never provided it's own news. It has always linked to news agency websites and just collated the content at one place according to relevance.
  Google search always is about other websites.
  
  Same with youtube , the videos are posted by someone else.
  In contrast yahoo has always been content provider what with games and stuff.
  
  Is this proposition still valid that 'Google doesn't produce own content as such only brings it together in one place' ?
  
  By content I mean stuff such as knowledge , games, entertainment, news articles , etc.
  
  I won't include videos which explain google features as content per se. Those are simply information.
  I think closest Google gets to being part of world culture is when it does the doodles.
