Google Catalogs for Android and iOS to be mothballed on August 15th

If window shopping through Google Catalogs is your go-to lunch break pastime, you might want to sit down. Mountain View has proclaimed that the service's Android and iOS apps will no longer be supported when August 15th rolls around. Not all is lost, however, as the search giant will keep the digital product tomes alive online. Although Google Catalogs is meeting its end much like Google Reader did, something tells us we won't see replacements for this particular platform cropping up left and right.

Google Catalogs makes webbased catalog browsing a reality

For folks who prefer to get their retail therapy in digital form, Google Catalogs is a godsend. In case you forgot, it's an aggregation portal with digital catalogs from myriad merchants that lets you browse retailer wares without killing trees and now it's available on the web. When Catalogs first debuted, it was only available as a tablet app for iPad or Android. The new web-based catalog browser, however, lets users peruse wares from over 300 merchants -- including Crate&Barrel, Brookstone and even Fredrick's of Hollywood -- on any device with an internet connection. The holiday season's approaching folks, so head on down to the source and get your shopping out of the way early -- or, at least flesh out your personal wish list.
