Google has form when it comes to giving up on almost anything that isn't its core search business. So, add web domains to the list of failed Google experiments. Google Domains is officially toast. It will be wound down and its assets including the hosting of some 10 million domain name is being sold to none other than Squarespace.
Incidentally, if you're interested in a full list of technologies and products Google has nixed, rock on over to the Google Graveyard at killedbygoogle.com. Anyway, the odd bit here is that it was just four weeks ago that Google Domains rolled eight new TLD or Top Level Domains, including .dad, .phd, .prof, .esq, .foo, .mov and .nexus to join old favourites like .com and .org.
