Google’s Biggest Product Flops and Failures

Google the search engine giant have launched number of products which failed from time to time. Google Wave, Google buzz, Google answers are few to mention. Here is a list of the company’s past failures starting from 2005…

Infographic by WordStream, an Internet Marketing Software Company

How Massive is Google?

Google is certainly one of the largest technology companies in the world. But just how massive exactly it is?

Well, according to the infographic created by computers school, Google is seriously strong financially and is the undisputed champion when it comes to indexing information on the web. One interesting fact highlights that the amount of data stored in Google totals 1.2 zettabytes, which is equivalent to everyone in the world posting on Twitter non-stop for a century.

Financially, Google is extremely efficient as it reported an all time high of $23.7 billion in revenue and $6.5 billion in net profit for 2009. That was a good 50% jump from its 2008’s net profit.

Google stretches itself wide to ensure people spend time on its site (YouTube, Orkut etc). That’s the Google revenue equation at work but its dominance is challenged by Microsoft and Facebook. Can Google maintain the steam? Or are the recent dismay results (Wave, Buzz, Phone) showing signs of a failing giant?

Best Apps Utility For Your iPhone

Here's a look at some apps that will let you make the most out of your iPhone whether it's your battery life, e-mail, texting or more.
Battery
There are, approximately, 8 gazillion applications that enable you to see how much battery life you have left. It's hard to say which is the best, as they all do pretty much the same thing. Many are free, and most of those have three stars; some are paid, and they range from three to three and a half stars, for the most part, in average ratings. So we chose to go with BatteryMagic, as it has both free and paid (BatteryMagicPro) versions, as the app has hundreds of ratings.
Many of the battery apps have both free and paid versions and most do the same thing.
BatteryMagic will tell you how much time you have left on your battery for:

• 3D Game Play
• Game Play
• Talk Time
• 3G Internet
• Wi-Fi Internet
• Video Playback
• Audio Playback
• Standby Time
• iPod Video Play Time
• iPod Audio Play Time

It'll also tell you how much time it'll take to full recharge your battery.

The pro version adds the ability to tell if you'll be able to see a full-length movie with the battery life you have, a notification when your battery is fully charged, the ability to switch from 3-D to 2-D to conserve battery life when you don't need 3-D capability, plus skins to customize the battery image with colors, images or patterns (like zebras?).

Unlock screen notifications
Sometimes you need to check your to-do list or your reminders quickly and don't want the bother of unlocking your phone, navigating to the app and opening it. iNotify enables you to put certain notifications on your unlock screen so all you have to do is wake up your phone to see what's next on your list.

You can customize colors and even set up different wallpapers through the app, for different to-do lists or goal-setting or other notifications, changing them out as you're done. Heck, you could put your grocery list on there if you wanted. It's 99 cents, too, so it won't break the bank.

All-in-one
AppBoxPro has gotten a lot of thumbs up for having a whole bunch of utlity apps in one: battery life, clinometer, currency converter (195 currencies), date calculator, countdown/days until, flashlight with adjustable brightness, holidays from 83 nations, loan calculator, periodic calculator, price grab, random number generator, ruler, sale price calculator, system info, tip calculator, 52-language translator and a unit converter with 17 categories.
This month, the app is supposed to add customizable themes, a calculator, a strobe and new graphics to the flashlight, nine more languages to the translator, holidays from 11 more countries, and a "secure wallet" app. December should bring a dictionary.

This app has gotten more than 2,500 ratings and has a solid 3.5 average rating in the App Store. And right now it's 99 cents "for the holiday season," though it's usually $1.99.

Wireless mouse/trackpad
The AirMousePro lets you convert your iPhone into a wireless mouse or trackpad.
It uses the phone's built-in accelerometer to translate your hand motions into mouse movements. The main uses it's touted for are for controlling your "home-theater PC" or for giving a presentation. Its features:

• Accelerometer based mouse
• Trackpad (full screen vertical and landscape modes)
• Media keys and Web keys
• Application notifications - Remote keyboard with modifier, function and arrow keys
• Programmable hotkeys (can be set to run a program or keyboard combination)
• Scroll pad
• Multi-touch gestures (scroll & right click)
• Password protection
• Custom sensitivity settings
• Foreign-language keyboards
• Support for Bonjour or static IP
• No screen size limitation. Works with multiple monitors

Another app that has thousands of ratings, with a solid four stars for the current version. It costs $1.99 right now.

Camera flash

Many user complaints about the iPhone camera focus on the lack of a flash, so if you're not in good light, you're outta luck.
There are a few apps that strive to fill this void:
Flash for Free, a free app, has nine different flash effects and undo functions. Basically, you take your photo, apply the app to it and brighten it. It has more than 13,000 ratings and just two stars, but it seems that's at least in part due to a major bug in the previous iteration. It won't help if you took the photo at night, some remark in reviews, but if you have a photo that needs to be lightened just a wee bit, for free, you can't beat the price.

Camera Flash and More is a much newer app, with just slightly more than 50 ratings, but averaging 4.5 stars. As the name implies, it adds flash to your photos - and you can add it multiple times to increasingly brighten it. It also allows you to darken photos if they're overly bright. It also allows you to convert your photos into black and white or sepia or give it a metallic sheen. You can also invert the photo for funky effect if you like. It's 50 percent off right now, just 99 cents. The next version will allow you to share your fixed-up photos with friends.

Camera functionality
Another major complaint people have about the iPhone camera is its lack of zoom. HD Camera attempts to resolve that, with up to 4x digital zoom with real-time preview.

It's $1.99, but only has 14 ratings, averaging 3.5 stars. The developer's website links to an unclaimed GoDaddy! page, so it's uncertain what kind of support there may be for this app, but it was only just accepted into the app store last month. The developer also has an app, Action Freeze, which enables the user to take a non-blurry photo of a child or animal that's constantly fidgeting. This app has nearly 40 ratings and is averaging 4 stars.

Internet speed
SpeedTest is the iPhone app of the well-known website, allowing you to test the speed on your ISP. This way, before you complain to your provider that your wireless speed is for the birds, you can test it to make sure it's not just your phone or a momentary blip.

It's been used a lot; a free app, it has a solid 3.5 stars after nearly 23,000 ratings.

Emoticons
C'mon, you know you would prefer if your messages or notes showed actual emoticons instead of just the old-fashioned colon-dash-close parens when you send a text message on your phone.

Enter iEmoticons, which does just that. Googly eyes, flowers, hearts, smileys and even a smiley with a SARS-like mask on it. After nearly 3,000 ratings, it has 3.5 stars in the App Store (99 cents) and it works on Notes, SMS texting, e-mail and other apps.

WiFi locator
Let's face it. AT&T doesn't have the top 3G network around. Fortunately, you don't have to completely rely on the phone network to use your iPhone, you can use a wireless connection.
WiFiFoFum scans for 802.11 networks and gives you a plethora of information about each it detects:
• SSID
• MAC
• RSSI (signal strength, shown as a number or in an icon)
• Channel
• AP mode
• Security mode
• Available transmission rates
You can then connect to the network of your choice, provided it's unlocked or you have the password. And so you don't have to go through the same process every time to figure out where the best Wi-Fi networks are, it allows you to create logs of access points. They can be viewed on the iPhone's maps app or you can send it by e-mail so you can access the information from your laptop - you just paste the link in the e-mail into Google Maps.
You can save passwords, and the main list is sorted by signal strength, so you can easily see which networks to try first.

For $2.99, the app has more than 500 ratings, averaging 3.5 stars.

Diagnostics
It can be frustrating when your iPhone is sluggish or is crashing and the first thing most people assume is that it's AT&T's fault. But it isn't always due to the not-best-3G network in the nation.
System Activity Monitor allows you to check your:

• Runtime (RAM) memory usage

• Storage (Disk) usage

• All running processes

• CPU usage

• WiFi and Cellular IP addresses

• MAC addresses

• Device information

• Battery level

The information will allow you to determine if you need to free up some memory, force-quit some apps or get rid of some apps.

One testimonial claims Apple Tech Support suggested the user get SAM to help diagnose the problem he was having. It's $2.99 and has 3.5 stars after nearly 300 ratings.

Available memory
What if all you want to know is how much memory you have left on your iPhone? Whether you can download that Paper Toss game app everyone's been talking about?

The free Disc Space app will tell you how much space you have in total (in case you can't remember if you sprang for the 8, 16 or 32 GB), how much is in use and how much you have left. Nearly 1,000 ratings, averaging 4 stars.

File viewing
It's one thing if someone e-mails you a link to look at, another thing entirely if they e-mail you a Word file or a PDF.
A relatively new app, File Viewer enables you to look at PDFs, Word docs, Excel spreadsheets and PowerPoint presentations. It supports these file types for data, images and media:

• pdf
• doc
• xls
• ppt
• pps
• txt
• rtf
• htm
• xml
• csv
• docx
• pptx
• xlsx
• jpg
• bmp
• png
• tiff
• gif
• mp3
• wav

It has just 17 ratings, but is averaging 3.5 stars; it costs 99 cents.

Text-to-speech
There are a whole bunch of reasons you might want to have a text-to-speech app on your iPhone.
You might want to make it easier to get through a document or e-mail someone sent you and you're on a train or bus or in a car and reading it is a little hard as you're jostled around. NeoSpeech, the parent of NeoJulie, offers TTS in several languages: English, Spanish, Korean, Mandarin Chinese and Japanese, with both male and female voices.
Its iPhone app, NeoJulie, so far only offers the English-language TTS, with the "Julie" voice. With 30 ratings, it's averaging 4 stars.
Speak It markets itself slightly differently.
"Have you ever wanted to prank call someone, but your voice gave you away?" And they helpfully remind you to turn off your caller ID before you call your friend to prank him or her. But it's also billed as a way to make announcements elegantly, by plugging the phone into a PA system.

It offers American and British male and female voices. With more than 430 ratings, it's averaging 3.5 stars. More voices appears to be the most requested change. It'll run you $1.99.

Videos/Photo privacy
Video Safe ($3.99) and Picture Safe ($1.99) promise to protect your videos and photos from prying eyes, especially useful if you've uploaded your porn collection to your iPhone.
You can import photos or videos into the app, or shoot them directly from inside the app, which protects them with a password. And to stop snoopers from digging deeper if they type in an incorrect password, you can set it to send them to a "safe area," with a collection of "generic" images. It also enables users to quickly hide any image or video from a passer-by's view with a double tap.
The app also allows you to organize photos by subject matter, so it doesn't just have to be used for ... NSFW images.

Video Safe has nearly 3,000 ratings and Picture Safe more than 5,000 ratings and both average 4 stars

Old-fashioned telephony
OK, this one's not really practical, and most iPhone users probably have never seen a rotary telephone in their own homes. But Rotary Dialer allows you to use a virtual rotary dialer, complete with authentic sounds.

It's 99 cents, has multiple themes for various looks, and has more than 2,000 ratings, averaging 3 stars. The main complaints appear to be that it's not authentic enough - i.e., it dials too quickly. But can you imagine if it really took as long to dial as a real rotary phone?

Offline browsing
Quicky Browser allows you to save pages and sites you want to look at but might not have a chance until you're out of 3GS or Wi-Fi range. Say, when you're on the subway or on an airplane (though that's beginning to change).
Pages are saved without images and ads, so they load faster and don't use as much stored memory. It comes with full-screen browsing, hiding the toolbar. It can be used as a regular browser, too, loading your homepage immediately, but not storing any browsing history. You can lock the rotation, too, so in case you accidentally fumble your phone, the image on your screen doesn't tumble over and over itself.
It still has the Google search bar and allows you to e-mail a link to the website and you can use the same gestures as Safari - open pinch or double-tap to zoom, etc.

It has about 40 ratings, averaging 3 stars, though the newest version accounts for half the ratings and is averaging 4 stars there. It's 99 cents.

Universal searching

Sure, everyone says you can find everything in Google. But what if you can't? Or if you have specific sites you want to search for the same type of content on?
Search It allows you to move from one site's search to another without having to retype your query. It allows you to search for the same term on Google, eBay, Amazon, Yahoo, Dictionary.com, Wikipedia, IMDb, YouTube, USPS, FedEx, UPS, Twitter, Flickr, Allrecipies, WebMD and Urban Dictionary.

It's a pretty new app, with just 9 ratings, but all but one of those were 5 stars. It's 99 cents.

E-mail templates

There are some people you probably find yourself e-mailing often. Mail Quick! allows the user to, with one or two clicks, open an e-mail template already addressed to a person on your favorites list.
Users can either choose one person they e-mail very often and just by clicking on the app icon, an e-mail addressed to that person opens, or they can enter multiple addresses in the app and tapping the icon gives users a pop-up list you can choose from. You can preset additional CC: recipients and subject lines.

It's 99 cents, and relatively new. With 15 ratings, it averages 4.5 stars; though there were a couple of negative and average ratings, no one left a negative review, so it's not clear what their issues were.

URL status

If you manage several websites and travel a lot, you may need to check in on the sites to make sure they're running smoothly. Alternately, if you're just surfing your regular sites and are having trouble loading them, you might want to figure out if it's your service or the site itself.
SiteStatus allows you to input whatever sites you want to monitor and it keeps an eye on their network status. It also allows you to:

• Refresh all sites with one click or a shake
• Give your sites easy to recognize nicknames
• View the HTTP status code and message
• Launch your sites on Safari

You can monitor FTP, HTTP and HTTPS network protocols. It's 99 cents and has been around since may, though it doesn't seem to have been downloaded much, with just 5 ratings. Those ratings were mostly positive, though, averaging 4.5 stars.

There are a ton of utilities out there, some useful, some not. If you want some basics that really going to provide bang for your buck, here are five recommendations: AppBoxPro, Quicky Browser, File Viewing, WiFiFoFum and SpeedTest. Those are probably the ones you'd use most in your day-to-day life. Some of the others can be quite useful as well, such as Flash for Free, and others are just for fun - iEmoticon, for example, but if you had to choose the ones you're most likely to use and be glad you have on your iPhone, the five mentioned are probably the best bets.

Top 10 iPhone Racing Games

One of the most hotly contested proving grounds for any console is the racing genre and the iPhone is no different. There's a huge variety of different types of racing game to choose from on the App Store, and we have decided to compile ten of the absolute best. So when it comes to having something to show off how fantastic your shiny new iPhone 3GS is to your friends, you'll be in pole position. And so, in no particular order...

2XL Supercross - $7.99
This is still, not just one of the finest looking racers on the iPhone, but one of the finest looking games. It’s been updated several times since its release and now comes with a total of 15 tracks and 8 different control layouts, meaning there should be no complaints on those fronts. There’s also a dedicated 2XL server where you can compare your race times with other dirt rippers. If this game gets your engine revving, then you should also check out the similarly great 2XL ATV Offroad from the same developer.

Real Racing - $9.99
This one has grabbed more column inches than most racing games, thanks in part to the profile raising Flight Control which elevated people’s expectations of Firemint’s abilities, but also due to the fact that it features some of the finest track racing to appear on the iPhone. The collision physics are top notch and visually, it’s capable of silencing even the most hardened of iPhone gaming cynics. Now if only Firemint would hurry up and release that turbo charged 3GS edition it showed off earlier in the year.

Boost 3D - $1.99 (currently $0.99)
This is an odd one. There are no other racers and the tracks are entirely dynamic. That said, to call it anything other than a racer would seem wrong, so let’s agree that this is just a very original one. The aim is to steer past the coloured blocks while you hurtle forward automatically. The sense of speed is nigh on unparalleled and the stark visuals are an absolute triumph. It might not hold your attention for long, but in terms of games that push the genre forward, Boost is more exciting than many of its peers.

Need for Speed Undercover - $4.99
EA now lavishes the same attention on its iPhone releases as it does on other handheld consoles and Need for Speed Undercover is a bold statement of EA’s ambitions for the platform. Its vital statistics blow most of the competition away. Besides featuring 20 of the world’s most desirable real cars, there are 8 modes, three huge environments and 24 missions. And that’s all before you’ve got to grips with the customization options and upgrades. A genuine console-quality title on your iPhone and not to be missed.

Aqua Moto Racing - $3.99 (sale $0.99)
Charting territory that’s largely unchallenged in the iPhone space, sea-faring Aqua Moto Racing is as refreshing as it is technically accomplished. The bobbing waves and water effects are impressive, while the racing action itself is intense, addictive and challenging. It may be a bit short on extra modes, but the inclusion of stunts for gaining additional boost as well as a cool Ghost mode where you can go head to head with the best racers in the world, keep this title head and shoulders above water.

Asphalt 5 - $4.99
Gameloft has been pushing the Asphalt series since the days of Java on mobile phones and with the fifth official sequel developed as an iPhone exclusive, the series has quite possibly reached its zenith point. Featuring a whopping 30 real life cars (including the mythical Bugatti Veyron 16.4) this one is all about unashamed car porn. It’s fast too though and speed freaks can enjoy boasting rights on the included online leaderboard. Vroom Vroom indeed. You may want to try FREE version.

Ground Effect - $3.99( sale $0.99)
Opting out of the battle for tyre screeching supremacy, Ground Effect features futuristic hover cars speeding through enormous, verdant open-world environments with show stopping falls, jumps and unapologetic spectacle. It’s also one of the only games on the App Store to feature full stereoscopic 3D visuals, so if you have some 3D glasses you can add an extra dimension to the already impressive visuals.

Slotz Racer - $4.99
Slotz Racer is not a game for speed freaks, but it’s a great off-kilter alternative to the standard racing set-up. Playing out as a table top effort, it’s all about controlling acceleration to stay on the track. But that’s only half the fun, Slotz Racer’s real draw is that you can create and share your own tracks with a very easy to use track editor. Not one to show off how great your iPhone is at pushing polygons, but it definitely shows off just how varied and creative a place the App Store is.

Jet Car Stunts - $1.99
Again, Jet Car Stunts is not your typical racer. The tracks feature some of the most stomach churningly vertiginous designs you could possibly imagine and playing it feels akin to steering a derailed roller-coaster. It’s much more fun than it sounds and though there is a certain amount of trial and error involved, the precision and inventiveness with which this classic has been crafted will keep you coming back time and time again.

Rally Master Pro 3D - $4.99
Back on familiar, dirty ground, Rally Master Pro 3D is about skidding about in the mud in overpowered, lightweight vehicles with a footloose and fancy free abandon for safety. Sporting a damage model, an as yet rare feature in iPhone racers, as well as a weather system and a staggering 27 tracks, Race Master Pro 3D carries the sort of features that must make its peers gurn with envy. It’s a looker too and makes for a superbly executed dirt kicking alternative to the garage of tarmac chewers on the App Store.
