Google sucks, think about it.

Google Wave had its first birthday yesterday, but got no presents

When the folks at Google posted a Happy Birthday to Wave yesterday, it was difficult to tell whether or not they were being sarcastic or serious about it.

It’s now been a year since the first Wave demo wowed audiences the world over, only for those audiences to be sorely disappointed months later to find out that they not only couldn’t get ahold of invites to use Wave, but that it offered little to no usefulness once they did.

Just over a week ago, Google finally opened up Wave — taking it out of secret society mode and gifting it to the general public. But despite the overwhelming enthusiasm of some Googlers, nobody’s really buying it.

“Can you imagine a world without Wave today?” Google’s official post asked.

Probably, since there’s a pretty high likelihood that you’ve never used it. Just about everybody I know that’s tried Wave has had the same experience — which is to say that they stopped using it about half an hour after they started. Honestly, I don’t really blame them.

Another example why Google products are just all hype.  Really, who still uses this bullshit?  People use their products for like a day and forget about it. Don’t get me wrong I mean their search engine and gmail client is great but thats about it. Examples of fail from google are Google buzz, documents, froogle, wave, voice, gadgets ect.  The list goes on people.  When I was working for this snobby company they tried having us use google docs for booking meetings and client reserverations but it ended up being a complete disaster.  Why?  Because no one uses their products!  Their either just good ideas but “web developer trying to be a programer” quality or just good ideas but people dont need them every day.  Try sending a google doc to someone that uses word and have them call in the other line accusing us of grammer mistakes :(  Oh and google chrome OS is just a rehash of ubuntu watered down.  Seriously, people are just hyped up and think its randy dandy because it has the name “Google” on it but thats all it is.  Just a piece of junk with the Google stamp on it.  Think before you follow hype. 

Tea time with Mike Tyson……..yup. Tea time.
