Came here to say just this. At this point the only thing I really use from them is Search and Gmail. I just dont trust that anything else will stick around.

Map is not stable. Especially as you use it to navigate. I just almost park my car on the highway beside the Hiton hotel I want to check in!

Mockery aside, the rule "don't rely on Google products unless they're utterly dominant" is a good one.

Then maybe it should be: "Don't rely on Google products unless they're utterly dominant and necessities." Maps, email, search, are all needed in modern life. RSS readers lost out to Twitter & Facebook years ago.

And adsense. Well, I guess the adsense goes without saying.

But what else has Gooogle ever done for us?

"All right, but apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, a fresh water system, and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?"
