They make lots of "decent" stuff. They just don't continue to make them.

@scottalanmiller - No. lol Not like those. I use hangouts, but not many people do. I never used wave. Mapquest used to be a thing, and still is. Except, not really. Google maps is the defacto map app for smart devices, especially Android.

I can tell you some,
Google +, Google Reader (RSS Reader), Picassa (photo editor), Google Talk (Hangout predecesor), google labs, Google Earth Enterprise, Google URL Shorterner (https://firebase.google.com/support/guides/url-shortener), Inbox, Google Code. All those ones I used.

I had Google plus because a frined of mine was using it. I didn't use it that much. The idiot parts/customer service manager that has since been forced out, was always trying to use different shit and start projects with stuff he didn't have the expertise or budget for. He started using Picassa to catalog images of all sorts of parts. I told him that he shouldn't use that. Sure enough, picassa died.

Didn't Picassa just use the Google Photos for the back end though? So just use a new editing app, or did I miss something? I used Picassa in the day.. but it's been so long now I've mostly forgotten how I used it.

No, it was purely a desktop application. Support for Google Photos was added much later.
