RIP Google Reader. 😥

More to the point however, they’re killing off the advertising arm of Waze because they’re integrating it into the Google Ads department:

The company is moving Waze over to Google’s ads system, and that change will mean cuts at Waze in “sales, marketing, operations and analytics,” Chris Phillips, VP and GM of Google’s Geo unit, wrote in an email seen by the publication.

Since Waze was originally a separate app that was bought by Google, this is likely just killing off a redundant department. So unless the service you use is Waze’s ads, this probably won’t affect you too much.
