Extremetech: Google+ has been around for a year now, and has managed to gain a reputation for being a virtual ghost town. Of course, the hardcore fans of Google’s social network will tell you differently, and Google itself revealed some impressive stats at last week’s Google I/O conference. Google also announced a suite of improvements to Google+, but that’s only part of the picture
Google+ has always been a project for Google, regardless of what you’ve read in the media. With projects, come changes…and there have been quite a few for Google+ this year.
Google+ may finally be down for the count. Read our complete breakdown here.
G+ was a fail from the start. They have a good few qualities but not enough to get users switching by the masses
Yea, you're absolutely right. However, one thing they did right was their Photos.
They could have integrated G+ without ever making it automatic/mandatory/ obnoxious and things would have been fine, but they chose to force it on us and it only repelled people.
Yea I agree. When they started force feeding us Google+ as a mandatory thing, it killed them.
Who the fuck makes a social media website and just named it after their company and adds a plus? Imagine if Microsoft made one and called it Microsoft +.
The name is part of the reason it failed.
Microsoft did do something like it... Microsoft Xbox One (minus the plus) because its a negative console,haha hahahahaha
I'll get my coat..
After it fails, can we please allow Google Voice to use 3rd party apps again? Can we please get those apps on Windows phone lol.
Google has begun the global rollout of its brand new mobile operating system, Android 5.0 Lollipop. Android Lollipop is the newest mobile operating system from the company which can also support 64 bit configurations. The most interesting and hyped about part of Android 5.0 Lollipop is the new Material Design, which we’ve seen on the Nexus 9 and Nexus 6. While everybody is cheering once the Android 5.0 Lollipop update hits their devices, there are constant bug reports flowing in to Google.
