Rep Power: 10 | Google Finance failing to entice users Google has launched so many subsections on their site in the recent months that it is hard to keep track of all of them. Google Finance was one of the many projects they started with the aim to capture user’s attention who deal in stock markets and other finance related services. However, as per incoming reports the service is failing to break the stronghold of competing services like Yahoo Finance and MSN MoneyCentral. Yahoo Finance continues to remain the market leader in this segment as per statistics provided by research company Hitwise. This portal had a 34.9 percent share of the market, as of the week ending June 10, 2006. On second position came MSN MoneyCentral with a 13.67 percent share. CNN came at third position with their CNN Money website. Google Finance was at a disappointing 38th spot with just around 0.28 percent market share. |

Rep Power: 2 | First we used to hear all the successes of google, like adsense, gmail, adwords, etc. Now we have been hearing all failures with google with the shutting down google answers due to opening up of yahoo answers and now google finance! is google's dominance on the net slowly shifting focus? May be this is how it should be rather than a single entity controlling the entire entity which would rather lead to bloodbath or total destruction! |

Rep Power: 2 | If google is not good at this one right now then i am sure that it would be after some time as people at Google have proven themselves every time and surely they would prove themselves as the leaders in this one too. |

Rep Power: 2 | Google finance is a good service offered by Google but the main drop back si that they have to advertised it as much as there other services. if they would advertise it then i am sure that it would be one of the most beneficial thing to them. |
