Sorry kids, the slide is shut down

Google purchased a company called Slide for about $200 million dollars just over a year ago and now they are dissolving it. Slide was a company that created Social apps and it is very questionable why they would be shutting down something they spent so much money on when they are doing so much stuff on Google+.
After being acquired, Slide had operated as an independent unit out of Google’s San Francisco office, maintaining existing apps like SuperPoke Pets and experimenting with new ones such as messaging app Disco and photo-sharing app Photovine, which was released only last week.
