I agree that google lacks direction and purpose, but I don't believe that this is anything new. Evident it products like Wave and Dodgeball, google has a history of simply trying things out and seeing if it sticks. However, while this is annoying to us as consumers, it does seem to work in that it allows them to occasionally release useful products that, otherwise, would never have seen the light of day.

And if they do make a useful product it's killed few years later (;
