On: Google is discontinuing Inbox

I mean that's kinda how most industries work, just replace the word "development" with whatever that industry does

[rhizome → TheSoftwareGuy]

Except the things that a salesman sells don't stop existing once they're promoted, because the company is invested in the products, which Google seems singularly unable to do.

Google is an R&D company really, not a consumer one.
