I had exactly the same feelings when I heard about the decision. Now I'm planning to stop using Google Voice, which has the same indications of getting killed soon (zero development, no promotion, etc.) I am less excited about Google+ as well - I just cannot tolerate a company that kills features and products like this. This decision from Google is really damaging to them and they are idiots of they don't see it. This "focus" thing applies to small shops. Google is huge. They can afford to keep a product like Google Reader - small shops can't.
