Google recently announced the death of Google plus, they will be shutting down another products known as Small Business Community message board. This community will be inactive as from January 16th according to the announcement that was release on January 2nd by Google officials.
This announcement read as follows:
“Thank you for being a member of the Small Business Community from Google. We’ve enjoyed being on this journey with you and appreciate all the tips, insights and enthusiasm shared along the way.

The Community will be closing in a few weeks; your last chance to access it will be January 16th. We will keep you posted on any future Community efforts. We hope you’ve made many connections as a member, and will continue to benefit from those relationships in the future.”

The Small Business Community from Google was a community where business owners could share information with each other, make use of available resources and where they can organize meet-ups.
It seems Google is not interested in social media community any longer as they find it difficult to compete in the niche. Let us have your own say about this.

Google can't compete with Facebook and Twitter. They are all king in their own lane. Likewise Facebook cannot survive in search engine development. Google message board rest in peace!
