45 percent of Google projects in beta

Google has an infamous propensity to keep projects in beta for an unusually long time, and now somebody has gone to the trouble of quantifying just how widespread the testing tag is at the Internet giant.


"Of the 49 Google products we could find, 22 are in beta. That's 45 percent," not including Google Labs projects, according to a Wednesday blog post at Pingdom, a Web site performance monitoring company. "We're so used to seeing the little 'beta tag next to the various Google product logos that we almost don't register it anymore. We even had to double-check that Gmail really still was in beta."

I am not surprised.

Kind of keeps the company look better by not officially releasing a product that may have bugs and what not.

Id imagine Microsoft must be up there with live in beta and so many other less wellknown projects on the go.
