I am still here and I will be on GOOGLE PLUS til the bitter end/. Tuesday is my next YouTube posting day and I expect to still promote it here. (by "here" i mean the specific communities dedicated to YouTube video promo or the subject of the video) I really really have loved my years on this Google Plus platform. I even got to meet some of you in real life at SoConTaj which was held in Atlantic City New Jersey at the Trump Taj Mahal hotel casino. My Mom worked there for 14 years, until the union strikers ruined everything. I hope to see most of you on the various places we all know about. If there are any other networks I;d like to know about them so I can join.. Most of us seem to be on MeWe....I am too.... but lets not forget about https://www.youme.social/-LeathurRokk and https://www.minds.com/LeathurRokk and https://trumptown.com/LeathurRokk and https://www.spreely.com/55337 and https://myspace.com/leathur.rokk and of course https://www.facebook.com/leathur.rokk and http...

Web Archival using Webrecorder Webrecorder is a tool I've just learned about in the past week, and only just tried in the past hour. It is a Web-based tool for recording and downloading online content, and may be useful for those preserving some Google+ content. This is a very novice quick HOWTO. Point your browser to https://webrecorder.io Enter the URL you want to capture. This can be any Google+ URL, including Profiles, Collections, Communities, or * Search Terms I'm trying this right now the "SignalFlare" hashtag to capture any mentions of that which aren't already in the G+MM community. Click the "Start" button. On the new screen, under the "kebab" menu (three vertical dots), upper-right, select "turn on autoscroll". This will scroll to the end of the visible content of the page you're trying to capture. Let this run. When the autoscroll stops, you've got all the available content. Note that this is going to be t...

Google just started mass banning/limiting Archive Team downloads. If your thing doesn't end up on the Internet Archive, talk to Google. We need this corrected NOW .

All Things Chinese #signalflare Originally shared by All Things Chinese We Don't Say Goodbye Before All Things Chinese draws its last breath and becomes a lifeless corpse in less than 17 hours, I want to once again express my sincere gratitude to all 242,320 online friends who follow the Chinese Technology collection at G+, including 17 who just come to join this virtual community in the last 24 hours. I thank you for being here by my side until the end of my life on Google Plus. But we don't say goodbye, because we must choose to live in another form for all that we can give . Let's follow on the road, that lies ahead. Let's fulfil our destiny, making our journey towards eternity. We don't say goodbye, we shall meet on Minds again. http://viewofchina.com https://www.minds.com/allthingschinese https://twitter.com/ClassicChina https://www.pinterest.com/classicchina https://mewe.com/i/allthingschinese https://youtu.be/6vapP4sEo04 https://youtu.be/6vapP4sEo04

Originally shared by Jessica Meyer Good Bye Hi, plussers! It is very sad that we have to say good bye here, it's still hard to believe Google killed Google+, a shame! How can #Google lose something with such potential.. again! It seems they need better people working for them. It was wonderful while it lasted.. specially at the beginning when we had more tools available. Let's keep in touch ok? I have had a great time here, with amazing circlers, and would love to see you all again! At the moment I'm more active on #Minds, but I've also created an account on #YouMe today to try it out, and I also have #Twitter. Add me! Farewell.. https://www.minds.com/JessicaMeyer https://www.youme.social/-JessicaMeyer https://twitter.com/jessy_meyer https://www.minds.com/JessicaMeyer

For data migration: Google Drive has 15GB free storage Thats far more than enough for most users, though photo/video-heavy profiles may exceed this. You can select Google Drive storage WHEN CREATING your Google Data Takeout archive and have it stored there automatically. Google Data Takeout with G+ content preselected: https://takeout.google.com/settings/takeout/custom/circles,plus_communities,plus_one,plus_pages,profile,stream (I'd thought the limit was far lower.)

Many thanks to Edward Morbius and all the contributors to this group, for helping so many of us make informed decisions about where to go next. I've decided to head to the federated services worlds, starting with Mastodon and Pluspora. I don't want a single corporate owner to own the ability to arbitrarily switch off my whole community again. I choose this one value ahead of other factors, like the current size of the community, the 'polish' of the UI, the integrations with my mobile devices ... Others will make different decisions, and they won't all be wrong :-) We all enjoyed G+, so take that sense of enjoyment and improve whatever service you end up using!

This is how the social network of the future will start. Not a social networking site by itself, just a way to keep the social network together. One place to concisely offer information about your presence in social sites. I wish I had paid attention to this site sooner. #SignalFlare https://wheretofind.me/@Edgar_Brown

#Signalflare I’ve been trying to get myself to come around and do this for a while now, but unhappy endings are hard. OK, here we go. You can find me at these places: 1. Blogger. https://feministpassion.blogspot.com/ I have been on blogger for a few years now. I post my articles there and share them on G+. 2. Pluspora. lizahadiz@pluspora.com Pluspora is a nice and friendly place for Plussers, but don’t forget to use the hashtags! 3. Frendica. cappuccinogirl@squeet.me Interestingly, I haven’t made any friends or had any interactions here. 4. Pashpost. https://pashpost.com/profile/lizahadiz I must admit I’m liking it here, many of its features are like G+ and it’s easy to use as 1, 2, 3. I think Gplus refugees looking for a new home should consider Pash. 5. Youme.social. https://www.youme.social/-LizaHadiz I most recently joined Youme.

#signalflare Originally shared by European Union Time to move to a new location Our final post on Google+ We have been on Google+ since late 2011 and its been a great site to share news and information on the European Union. However like everything, it is now a time to change where we will be located due to Google+ shutting down. We looked at three potential homes, these being MeWe, Pluspora and YouMe Social. The criteria we used was the ability for people to view the content both within the site as well as outside, the general political stance of the site itself, the ability to establish collections and communities [or similar], the location of the site, the potential to expand our followers within the European Union etc. After assessing all three sites, we ruled out US based MeWe despite having about 50,000 Google+ members due to its location, its restriction on public viewing of our content, the political stance of its owners and the required features we are looking for.

M Sinclair Stevens #signalflare Originally shared by M Sinclair Stevens Google Plus: Ghost Town After feeling devastated by the April 2012 redesign, and in response to Peter Strempel, I wrote these words of encouragement, which I share now as we move onward, to new frontiers "On Google+ there is a sense (even if it's only imagined) that we are building this place together. Explorers and pioneers and settlers. Isn't that why we talk about it endlessly? Concerning the work that we've all put in to building communities on Google+, Peter worries about "the ominous threat of impermanence, of being edged out altogether, and of losing any benefit that might have accrued to the significant unrewarded effort that went into building a small corner of the Google imperium." In the family where my character was formed, that's pretty much life. I've descended from a long line of people who made something out of nothing, who struggled with the insufficient tools, wh...

Hi, The "photos from posts" album will be deleted, the album is auto created by G posts. The problem is me have many albums in "photos from posts"(about 1000+ or so), all following a YYYY/MM/DD naming scheme, that contain usually 1 photo, there's no option to download all the album archive at once and I have to manually select the albums and download each image. Is there a way to download all the album archive? Many Thanks!

I hope this saves a few of you some time and aggravation. Originally shared by Edgar Brown I carried out my last data export from G+ and with little more than 24hrs to go, here is my experience. In hopes that it will help some of the procrastinators.. 1450 posts more than 6000 comments, first post in February 2012. I was obviously into cameras back then. Forget about Google TakeOut in any format. But particularly in html format. It will save the text of your posts and some information around it, but most of it will be gone with G+, as it contains links to G+ addresses. This is also true for the Json format. I ended up using Google + Exporter (and shelling out the $20 because I have more than 800 posts in my stream). But, although the archives are more complete and the export controls are much more detailed than Google's Takeout, that is still not enough. As many of the media links head back into g+. After trying at the several formats offered, I ended up choosing Wordpress for th...

A contact form for this purpose and others is under the "hamburger" icon on the archival site. I have never done this before and don't know how guest posting would work, but would be willing to try this for owners/mods and frequent posters in this G+MM Community.

Does anyone know the best way to save photos in posts I've +1-ed? I've used the Friends+Me software and it grabbed a bunch of images, but I'm not sure if they include all the images I've +1-ed. And I've got the JSON files from communities, but I can't figure out if there's a file that includes those +1's. Google's own Takeout says it includes +1's, but I think that's only for other websites that aren't G+. Another thing I'm wondering is whether using a tool for archiving websites would be of any use. I apologize if these are questions that have been asked already; I honestly don't have time to search the community right now on mobile and I've only got like one more day to do this, so... I have everything else, I just remembered all those posts I've +1'd but that I didn't share to my profile for whatever reason, and I want them!

Good morning, everyone. I have a question: I particularly really love the Google+ community: 'Art - Paintings & Drawings Only' I would like to keep watching those wonderful pieces of art. Does anybody know where are those painters and Art lovers migrating to? What could be my best alternative, since Google+ is disappearing very soon? Thanks a lot in advance.
I am just getting "Error 500" when I attempt to download my takeout archives (same error in multiple pages/accounts)

After the Shutdown -- continuing discussion and Data Import support For people looking for ongoing Google+ Exodus support and discussion, and/or assistance with data import to new sites and/or platforms: The #PlexodusReddit has a large archive of articles and posts related to the Google+ Exodus. Discussion's been light to date, though I strongly encourage stopping by. https://old.reddit.com/r/plexodus (Alt: https://reddit.com/r/plexodus ) There is a Friends+Me Google+ Exporter subreddit. Use has been light, but this should be useful for people looking to make use of F+Me Google+ Exporter archives on new sites and platforms. https://old.reddit.com/r/FMGE_Support (Alt: https://reddit.com/r/FMGE_Support ) And there's the #PlexodusWiki for technical and contacts information: https://social.antefriguserat.de/ Ongoing Tasks There are some continuing projects that will extend beyond the shutdown, including: Updating user and Community directories. We have lists of around 1,0...

KEEP CALM AND SAIL ON I'll be away and busy at a writers' workshop when Google+ shuts down for good, so I'm saying my goodbyes with this post. I have no more words to say or tears to shed, and no hopes left for a last-minute change of heart in the Google empire. Thank you, everyone. This will also be my last #SignalFlare. Let me repeat, I'm on Pluspora: indaybukaw@pluspora.com, and on Instagram: @gracearcellana. Also waiting for Openbook beta. Special thanks to Edward Morbius for all the work he has done for this community. May our paths cross again! ~~~

Archival of top ~100k G+ Community homepages only in process completed I'd posted a listing of the top 103,000 or so Google+ communities by the criteria of > 100 members and activity within the previous 30 days (to when the analysis was made). This is the bulk of active communities on G+, though a small fraction of the 8.1 million total communities. This is NOT a full Community archive. Rather, it is a breadcrumb (or set of breadcrumbs) which can be used to join SignalFlare posts to future homes, by creating a permanent archive of the community homepage. What will be archived is only the homepage of the community, up to ten recent posts, and some of their contents. Enough to provide a stepping stone (or reference point) to future homes. As an example of the archive format, see the G+MM archive here: https://web.archive.org/web/20190330071102/https://plus.google.com/communities/112164273001338979772 (Note that I've also been archiving this about 2x daily for the past...

Final, final, Takeout I've just run the big posts takeout and it completed in a normal and acceptable time of 5 minutes or so. So it feels like it should be possible and no problem to do one last final takeout on Monday 1-April. My image problems are still there but they are confined to only a few posts. It's obviously not going to get fixed now. I doesn't look like we'll get a usable Communities download either that includes comments.

A set of 604 curated "locally notable" G+ profiles https://pastebin.com/raw/0Wh4BJah This list comes from a set of contributions from Eli Fennell's listing here: https://plus.google.com/110619855408549015935/posts/XrZkNKam1Jo Though not strictly-speaking "signal flares", I've submitted the profiles to the Internet Archive's Wayback machine (scripted via the "Save" URL) -- that part took about 90 seconds. Sorting out grabbing all the profile names and IDs from G+ HTML (and wrestling with local systems) a couple of hours. A really good reason to pin a #signalflare post is that that pinned post WILL SHOW UP IN THE INTERNET ARCHIVE when saved. (I'll schedule another save or few of this through April 2.) This'd be a good set of folks to keep tabs on and through whom to find others. I'll be adding this to the #PlexodusWiki Notable Names Database (NNDB) ... eventually: https://social.antefriguserat.de/ https://pastebin.com/raw/0Wh4BJah

This is where the most discussion has been (serious and satirical) about when, where, and how big the switch will flip. Most (IMHO) are assuming-anticipating continued decrements and the clocks tend to run out at midnight, April 2, with our Cinderella world chariot quickly (?) returning to a pumpkin, and then no mas. Here's one of a few countdown clocks, for those asking. (Don't stare too long at the accident or into the eclipsing sun!) Seems to be that 1 April will be the day of watch parties, some documenting, and a whole lot of watching. As others have no idea ... Well, here's to us... All of us collectively who shared this lovely world. Originally shared by Michael Fenichel COUNTDOWN CLOCK - For clock watchers and nail-biters... Here's one of a few live countdown clocks, all - like some of the parties &/or deathwatches - assuming/guessing "the switch" is pulled at midnight (somewhere) . So most see April 1 as the "beginning of the end" ...

Which are the alternatives to Google Plus, which will enable you to automatically transfer all your Google Plus posts automatically? I have just created an account on MeWe. I have several thousands of posts on Google Plus going back to its very inception in 2011, and I don't want to lose any of them. Ravi VS Prasad

Edit: The link to G+ will be gone. But the string to search for it won't be. Originally shared by Patrice Brenner #signalflare https://plus.google.com/u/0/109292855168539764071 A good idea? To link the old G+ profile in the new social media? Then you can use the downloaded contact data to find your contacts again later. No matter where one ends up in the next time. Eine gute Idee? Das alten G+ Profil in den neuen sozialen Medien zu verlinken? Dann findet man, über die herunter geladenen Kontaktdaten, auch später seine Kontakte wieder. Egal wo man landet, in der nächsten Zeit. https://plus.google.com/u/0/109292855168539764071

Hi, I am trying to save my Google+Collections. I used it for storing links, text, images and my comments. Basically, it was a handy notepad and a catalog for work. Now I'm trying to download my info through google archive (both in html and json formats) and all I get is this (please the image below). The link there is not working. Is there any way to save the actual links, images and my comments to them? I have thousands of posts in my collections and it'll be very problematic to save them by hand. Also, I'm so upset this option will no longer be available cause there's no alternative. Separate google collections feature is no near as handy. Thank you.
