Sites to see all the services that Google and Microsoft have created over the years
At this time, both Google and Microsoft are two of the major technology giants that accompany us daily today. All this is thanks to their products, services and platforms that we use from our desktop computers and from other devices such as mobile phones. But we must keep in mind that not everything they launch works.
We're talking about companies that have been with us for a fair number of years and bring us their projects, both on a personal level and on a more company-focused level. All we have to do is look at our desktop, mobile or console to find multiple products from these two companies. But despite all this, they also made mistakes, and they were many. Specifically, we are referring to projects that were worked on for a long time and that eventually became real disasters and were closed.
Both Google and Microsoft have suffered setbacks in recent years in the form of applications and online platforms that have not achieved the expected success. Hence, a website has recently been launched where we will have the opportunity to see the platforms that Microsoft has destroyed over the years. To give you a better idea, it is a site that was created and launched to make available to everyone a collection of already abandoned products and software platforms developed by Microsoft.
Called Microsoft Graveyard, we just have to access this site from our favorite browser to take a look at these products. We also find a brief description of each service, the date of its disappearance, and a link that will allow us to expand on everything related to that platform or program.
In fact, it can be said that this website that we just mentioned with the Microsoft products that were closed is a copy of Google's website. The fact is that some time ago, the search giant launched its own site to identify programs and platforms that it had to put aside over time by closing them permanently.
To access the Killed by Google website, we can do so through the link at the bottom of the article. We will also find software and hardware projects that have disappeared over the years, which were actually developed by the search giant.
We will find detailed information about each of these projects as well as the history of their disappearance. Without a doubt, both of the above locations will be intriguing because we will find some ingredients that we didn't even know were gone.
