I wish Google had used a less generic name. Searching for "mail isn't showing up in my inbox" is either going to show you generic mail problems or Google Inbox problems. Apple's "Messages" app is a terrible name in the same way.

For a company that still makes the vast majority of it's money from search, Google sure generates a lot of products with absolutely horrible SEO.

The chrome browser vs chrome os search overlap is just awful as I found out this week.

Google don't make money on Search. They make money on Advertising.
