Google's strategy is between their leadership, their employees, and their shareholders. As a user, I think their products (the ones I use) are as good as they have ever been. I don't really have a need for this cloud-drive thing, but I also don't understand why I should be upset that they released it.
It's not about being upset, it's about the view that they are losing their edge in building new, interesting stuff. They are not solving user problems, they're just copycat products.
To become a long-lasting company, you have to be able to build the "next big thing".
