2) this blog post refers to Google Chat's "Spaces" features like it's a standalone product? It doesn't even mention the word "Google Chat?" What in the world? https://t.co/yWH4zGc9VG
In 2016, there was a race between Slack, Microsoft, Google, and FB to build the next *big* enterprise social network

6 years later, one product has clearly won: Microsoft Teams (145M DAU, Q2'21)
G now bows out, Slack sells to Salesforce, FB's on life support

Remember Google Currents Junior (the artist formerly known as Google+), but not Google Currents the newsstand app?
