Google is waving good bye to Google Wave which was dubbed as the next generation messenger. Collegefallout had covered about this revolutionary product which Google claimed would transform the way people communicate online.
You can read the earlier post on Google Wave here.
Google has stopped the Google Wave service due to lack of users. When Google Wave was launched by Google it was proving to be a big hit with high-profile scientists working within top institutions including MIT, Stanford, Harvard, Cambridge and the University of Michigan. And the whole internet was looking for Google Wave “invites”.
The product was created by two brothers Jens and Lars Rasmussen, who were also behind Google Maps.
“Wave has not seen the adoption we would have liked,” said Urs Holzle from Google in a blog post.
Google claimed that although they are discontinuing Wave due to its failure to be popular among internet users it was still a clever product. Adding that sometimes, it is very difficult to objectify why a product did not take off.
