Google Acquires Email App Maker Sparrow
That royally stinks
Sparrow was an *exceptional* application. Now they've purchased it and are killing it off. Now we lose a really terrific desktop/mobile client, and given how absolutely terrible Gmail for iOS and Gmail for Android is, it's pretty sad.
Isn't that why they bought them ? Maybe they realised that their App should be filed under G (for garbage) and maybe they want to make it better by buying the competition, and using them to improve their own products.
Who says they are killing it?

Sparse-o
In my opinion, Sparrow is a downgrade compared to gmail. "Sparse-o's email client resembles the first generation of Outlook Express.
