    Everyone has their own set of online annoyances – being invited to play Farmville for the 10 000th time on Facebook, someone on Linkedin wanting to add you to their network, attractive girls in my area wanting to meet me while I’m doing research for a story, the list goes on.

    And then there’s the people who insist on telling you Google+ is the greatest thing the internet can offer you. It’s like Facebook they say, but better – except for the fact that none of their friends are on it and they’re constantly pissing people off with their repeated requests.

    Good news if you share the above frustrations because, and this shouldn’t come as much of a surprise, Google+ is being read its last rites. The Daily Beast reports:

    Bradley Horowitz, Google’s VP of Streams, Photos, and Sharing, announced that the company will continue to migrate Google+ features out of the social networking service and into other Google products. In March, Google Photos shed the Google+ name and soon, according to Horowitz, YouTube and several other Google services will no longer require a Google+ account.

    If you’re unsure exactly what the kerfuffle about the service was in the first place here’s the description you’ve been looking for:

    Google+ is like the unpopular rich kid at school who had a hot tub that no one used because he didn’t have any friends. If you ever went over to his house, you probably would have enjoyed yourself but you never did because no one wanted to go with you.

    Fare thee well Google+, looks like Facebook came out the winner.
