@honeymonster, right on! We only learn from failures. Kudos to Google for knowing when to shut it down too. Lot's of companies just keep pouring cash into a bad product because they are too proud to say it's over.
For this guy to say they should have "kept it to themselves" until they were sure it would work is just ludicrous and obvious he knows nothing about running a software product. How would they know its a failure unless they had users? 100,000 users is pretty good by most standards.
