Despite being the butt of social media jokes for a while now, Google+ isn't going anywhere - it has just been given a revamp [bbc.com].

The "new" site will now focus on "collections" and "communities" - making it more an interest-network than a personal one.

In a blog post, Google said [blogspot.com]: "Today, we're starting to introduce a fully redesigned Google+ that puts Communities and Collections front and centre. Now focused around interests, the new Google+ is much simpler.

"And it's more mobile-friendly - we've rebuilt it across web, Android and iOS so that you'll have a fast and consistent experience whether you are on a big screen or small one."

Another post, on Google+ [google.com], said the company had been visiting users in their homes to get feedback.
