From CGI member Morgan:

***************************************

I guess it was just too easy and useful for those with a brain to spread their REAL news to the masses. Well, it's gonna take a little more work; but I'm gonna blog more than ever after it's gone. Not only that, I may post all my stuff here (on RMN-CGI) too. Not my blog, but the individual stories.

For what time we have left. Think there's gonna be anything remotely resembling the remainder of our so called 'status quo' in two years?

Google has an official closing date for its troubled Google+ social network: April 2.

The search engine giant says on that date Google+ accounts and any pages created will be shut down and begin being deleted. Should you have any photos or other content you want to save, "just make sure to do so before April," the company said in a blog post.

Photos and videos also stored in Google Photos will not be affected. Google has posted directions on how to download an archive of your Google+ content. Any photos and videos backed up in Google Photos will not be deleted.

But the Alphabet-owned Google launched Google+ in June 2011 in an attempt to challenge Facebook and, to a lesser extent, Twitter, in the social networking competition. A successful Google+ could also have served as a social component to connect Google's various products.
