I just wanted to take this moment to commemorate the fact that I am finally closing my pinned Google+ tab.

(You may have noticed it takes me awhile to let go of things sometimes.)

#GoogleMinus #Google

It is finished.

It was still working this morning; I posted several times and interacted with a few people. ...but then I had to go out, so I couldn't ride it all the way down.

For those keeping score of the Google+ Archive project:

In 2012, the entire Internet Archive was 10 petabytes.

At about 70% completed, the Google+ archive is over 1 PB.

(I'd provided some size estimates to the Archive a few weeks back, I'd like to see how those are holding up.)

Jill Lepore has a great profile of the Archive from 2015 here:

Saving of public Google+ content at the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine by the Archive Team has begun

TL;DR: Most public Google+ content should live on at the Internet Archive thanks to a fanatical bunch of volunteers, and you can help.

Rather more at the link 😃

正如我们众所周知的,Google+ 消费者版本将于 4 月 2 日彻底关闭。然而在它彻底关闭之前,我们仍然有机会把它的所有内容存储下来。我们是 ArchiveTeam,专门捡漏那些将要关门的网站。

问题在于,我们需要您的帮助。Google+ 的数据,按目前归档的进度,将达到 EB 级。然而我们目前只有两台位于芬兰的存储服务器,和一台已经被数据塞满的澳大利亚存储服务器。加起来的存储容量不到 100 TB,难于应付 Google+ 的内容。如果您能提供存储服务器的话,麻烦移步至 EFNet 的 IRC 频道 #googleminus (英文)了解提供服务器的详情,在此感激不尽。
