Holy crap, I worked on parts of the UI on that site. No idea it was still online.
Really? What years? I guess it'll stay up as long as it generates revenue via ads. Its still someone's homepage I suspect. The elderly still using AOL perhaps?

I honestly don't think people outside the HN echo chamber care that much.
Problem is, people on HN are making decisions and building tools and startups. If everyone loses faith in Google, we'll stop using their platforms and tools which translates to loss of money. The only example I can give is at my day job, I built a backup system that uses Azure blob storage because I actually trust Microsoft more than Google. I wonder how many other people have a "anyone but Google" approach? It's not…
I wouldn't be surprised if they take the gamble on releasing a (free?) online enterprise office application suite as some sort of MS Office Lite. Google is no longer the hero of innovation we all thought they once were, and slowly but surely, smaller niche companies and serious tech giants with the singular goal of squashing Google will replace their core products with products that are more open source, privacy-focused, and with real customer support.
I remember when I wanted to work for Google. God, I remember when I wanted to work for Facebook. What the fish was wrong with me.
For a brief moment I've read "Google shutting 'Down Side Search'".

Since they pushed Excite out of this business, who will take up the slack?

I suggest using Coveo, it's the recommended thing to replace google enterprise search. Much more intelligent and better integration with the data. It's already used by majors companies like GoPro, Adobe and L'Oréal. Yes I worked there once :)
FYI We're also hiring and growing very rapidly! careers.coveo.com
this is why i'm not completely 100% with google photos. i'm ready to spend the monthly fees to store all my pictures in its original resolution, use google photos to manage/search my photos. except i don't want to commit to using it and then finding out google doesn't want to support it and just dumps it. same thing with google voice. i use it but i've never committed to using it as my main phone number. maybe it's a…

First let me apologize to the HPUX wizard that will very likely read this for being such a bumbling amateur. Anyway, here I go: H3:54/raid/hp/netsurf-all-3.6$ gmake --version GNU Make 3.80 H3:55/raid/hp/netsurf-all-3.6$ /usr/local/bin/gcc --version gcc (GCC) 3.3.1 H3:55/raid/hp/netsurf-all-3.6$ gmake BUILD_CC=/usr/local/bin/gcc CC=/usr/local/bin/gcc ... gmake[1]: Entering directory `/raid/hp/netsurf-all-3.6/libwapcap…
" Looks like some serious effort. To put things in context, I can't do remote X to a modern machine as in "$ DISPLAY=desktop:0 xterm& " This gives a protocol error. " Ok, I'm impressed. That's the first time I've seen that.
It's not ad-supported, so Google has to actually sell the service and collect money from large numbers of small users. Google is not good at that.
Uh, CSE is stayin and you can pay to remove ads from CSE. Once you run out of searches they send you a link and you click on it and press 'ok' under business. It uses your stored business card. Its pretty quick and I can't imagine it being an issue for anyone. Google also takes payments for other services like Play Music, Youtube Red, Apps, etc. I imagine the issue is that GSS hides a lot, (all?) of Google's branding…
