Yeah, I mean, I get their huge history shutting down small ancillary projects that they didn't see as strategic advantages, but GCP isn't one of those, and probably not for the foreseeable future.

Wave wasnt small ancillary, Google+ wasnt small ancillary. Google Hangouts wasnt small ancillary, reader wasnt small ancillary.

By that bar GCP is in the same boat. Good luck with that!

Wave was, Google+ failed, Hangouts got merged into Duo or whatever they call it now, Reader was.
