This is one of my concerns as well. I use blogger for clients as well.

They've shut down or are shutting down a few things I've used a decent amount, iGoogle, Reader, occasionally Code Search, and now their XMPP usage is in doubt (https://www.fsf.org/blogs/sysadmin/google-backslides-on-fede...) which I use for OTR instant messaging. I really liked being able to go explore Google Labs as well.

While losing any of the above isn't crippling, I certainly didn't expect to lose them, and it will make me have additional questions about using other Google products.

I guess it magnifies the difference between web and desktop apps.
