from the nonplussed dept.

A sigh of relief has been heard across the Internet as behemoth Google has finally relented in it's ever intruding necessity to have a Google+ account from every service and function from signing up for Gmail to posting comments on YouTube.

From Slate to The Verge and everywhere in between there is dancing in the streets as Google finally got the message... no, not today Google, I don't want Plus. Plus will not be going away, it will become it's own property, left to stand on it's own, and unhooked from every Google service under the sun.

    Well, your SN pseudonym definitely helps bolster the "old man on the lam" story.

    LOL - I was a runaway. I left my father's house for the last time when I was fifteen years old. Child services didn't like that idea very much, and they spent the entire summer searching for me - or my body. They weren't real sure that I really DID run away. Ehhhh - they found me, labor day weekend, just in time to ensure that I was in class when school started.
