What warrant us that Faqt.co is still alive next week? Nothing. Every service on the Internet can be shut down. Google services are as long online as Google profit from them.

How do the profit from Keep?

Faqt.co could as well yes, but google has quit a history of closing down small services.

After years of service, and with months of warning and a tool to export your data. Keep's predecessor (Notebook) lasted 6 years. Reader lasted 8. Orkut lasted 10. How many startups live for that long? How many don't suddenly shut down, leaving you stranded?
