    I think the general rule is anything google acquired was good and anything they built themselves was bad and ended up getting killed.

    There are exceptions but some of the only decent parts of google; maps, YouTube, AdWords were all acquisitions. I think they even just got HTC to build the pixel exclusively for them

      What pisses me off is the fitfit app requiring i turn on my location to sync my flex 2 mere weeks after google buys them out.

      It doesn’t even have a screen, why do you need a location?
