Even Google is abandoning Google+
- mcv 11y ago"Even Google"? Another of those "Google+ is a ghost town" fables I guess. The reality is of course that Google simply stopped trying to force people onto Google+ for services completely unrelated to Google+. And that's a good thing, but that doesn't mean people aren't using it. It's as vibrant as ever. A more interesting point is this one: http://www.frivology.com/blog/2016/how-google-failed-contessas-online-conventions http://www.frivology.com/blog/2016/how-google-failed-contess... Google+ had a unique combination of features around Hangouts and Events, and they killed it in the redesign. Perhaps it's also the result of their desire to uncouple things from Google+, but here they went too far. What was once a killer feature is now pointless. Lots of people use Google+, but for online events, they're going to have to look somewhere else.
