Search engine giant Google will soon permanently shut down some of their services and applications.
The services and products list which will soon be axed includes iGoogle, Google Video, Goole search app for Symbian, Google Talk Chatback and Google mini.
Among all these services and products, iGoogle and Google video are the most prominent one.
iGoogle is basically a service for the registered users of Google giving them the ability to customize Google’s Home page with different backgrounds and widgets. It will be closed in November month of 2013
Google Video is the old video hosting service from Google. They have stopped accepting uploads to Google Video in May 2009. All the present content of Google Video will be shifted to YouTube.com. Users can download or migrate their videos up till August 20, 2012.
The main reason for the closure of these services is that they are out dated and with evolution of modern social platforms like Google + and Facebook they seem to be irrelevant as per Google.
