Ironically, I think Photos was a product of Vic Gundotra, which Google higher-ups gave the boot because he failed in social (as if anyone else would have succeeded in beating Facebook - he gave it a good shot anyway). Google wasn't even savvy enough about social to know to buy Instagram.

Others might at least have failed in a way that was less damaging to Google's reputation.
