Google Reader first release 2005, discontinued 2013.
Google Code Search was another notable casualty and many others.
Now, one can point to Microsoft's web authoring efforts having cancelled a number of products(Frontpage etc) as well as cancelling Silverlight, VB6 etc etc.
Still MS Office Suite seems significantly more important to Microsoft than Google Docs is to Google.
Gmail, first release 2004.
Google docs, first release 2006.
Not too bad?
