Google Notebook, Dodgeball, Google Catalog Search, microblogging service Jaiku, and the Google Mashup Editor are some of the products under Google umbrella to be given closure notices.

Also in the cards of more product downtime, is restriction of video uploads at Google Video.

Users are redirected to upload their videos to YouTube and Picasa instead.

In the current time of global economic crisis, this is Google finally trying to cut back on cost, and divert resources to more viable projects.

The official statement from Google:

• Farewell, Google Catalog Search
• Turning Down Uploads at Google Video
• Stopping development on Google Notebook
• Changes for Jaiku and Farewell to Dodgeball and Mashup Editor
