Obituary: Time to Bury Google+

Yesterday was the final nail in the coffin of Google+

Google+ is going the way of Myspace, see Google Plus Will Be Shut Down After User Information Was Exposed.

If you are "younger," you might not even recognize the name Myspace, which was the Facebook of social media, before there was a Facebook, Facebook overtaking Myspace in 2008.

Google+ will be buried in the family social media plot located somewhere in Silicon Valley. Private graveside services will be held, with only software developers and investors invited — definitely no "Friends" will be in attendance.
