&gt; And the big issue with Google&#x27;s consumer offerings is that they seem to have limited to no support and that there is a very real chance that Google will just shut them down all of a sudden.<p>Express has, IME, excellent support, and I haven&#x27;t seen any Google product (consumer or otherwise) shutdown &quot;all of a sudden&quot;.<p>The ones people point to as examples of Google products being shut down were shut down with <i>very long</i> notice.<p>I do think that there is a very loud group of people who like to raise the &quot;Google&#x27;s just gonna shut it down tomorrow&quot; line every time a Google service is mentioned, but it doesn&#x27;t seem to be based on any real history of Google being any more prone than any other provider to shut down services (consumer or otherwise) on short notice or without a migration path. Maybe that loud group represents a real and commercially-significant feeling about Google in the market and not just a small, loud group that doesn&#x27;t real effect the market for Google products. But I don&#x27;t know what you can really do with that, even if it does.
