Google's Graveyard: A Look at Its Most Notorious Flops

Google's graveyard is a website that catalogs its discontinued creations, ideas, and 'innovations' that were unceremoniously sent to live in a farm upstate. The company has had many failures over the years, but some stand out more than others.

The Google Glass headset was doomed by its $1,500 price tag and major privacy issues. It was banned in some bars and theaters before being discontinued in 2015. Another notable failure is Google+, which was launched as a pricey attempt to take on Facebook but never quite found its footing.

Google also experimented with other projects like Wave, a real-time communication platform that combined email, instant messaging, and social media. It was confusing for most users and was ceased in development after just a year. Another failure is Stadia, the cloud gaming service that had solid tech but lacked a big enough audience.
