Re:Alphabet Loses $859M on 'Moonshots' in 2Q 2016 by whack on Friday July 29, 2016 @07:58AM (#12186258)
By moonshots, I'm referring specifically to projects that came out of the "Other Bets" division. That division specifically invests in projects that are "out there." From what I hear, realistic products like gmail and maps came out of the 20% time and other product-divisions, not the "Other Bets" division.

Considering that the Other Bets division (and Alphabet itself) was created one year ago, maybe it's too early to evaluate what has it produced.
