Google+ was googles try at making a Facebook like social media platform. No one really used it so they are shutting it down.

Forget about JEEVES or ALEXA or SIRI.. The most ACCURATE place of FACTUAL information without of any doubt is RIGHT here in AOF. I'll admit, there are varying degrees of accuracy depending on who posts the information
