Google Wallet API For Digital Goods Will Be Retired On March 2, 2015

An anonymous reader points out that Google plans to shut down Google Wallet API for third-party digital purchases. "Google has quietly revealed it plans to retire the Google Wallet API for digital goods on March 2, 2015. The company plans to continue supporting the sale of apps on Google Play as well as in-app payments, but users will not be able to purchase any virtual items offered on the Web through Google Wallet. We say "quietly" because there is no official announcement from Google. Furthermore, Google says it has no plans to proactively communicate the change to Google Wallet users; buyers will simply get 404 errors when trying to check out after support is pulled."

"Googled" seems to be a word that is mutating.
Used to be it was used as "She googled for the answer, and the link was on top of the results."
Now, it's more like "You've been googled, I'm so sorry that happened to you."
