As I reported earlier, Google is pulling the plug on the consumer version of Google+. Well now the date has been set: April 2.
For those fledgling users who want to pay their last respects, and, more importantly, offload their data prior to D-Day, here’s a hot to guide:
Download all your Google+ data
You can download an archive of all your Google+ data at once, including your Circles, Communities, Streams, and +1’s. Your archive includes your photos and videos from Google+.
- Go to the Download your data page. You might have to sign in. Your available Google+ data will be preselected.
- Click Next.
- Choose a file type.
- Choose how you want your data delivered.
- Click Create archive.
Download specific Google+ data
Instead of downloading all of your data, you can download specific Google+ data, like your photos, posts, communities, or events.
Important: If you want to download your photos and videos from Google+, make sure to select Photos under “Google+ Stream.”
- Go to the Download your data page. You might have to sign in.
- Next to the type of content you want to download (e.g., Google+ Stream), click the Down arrow
.
- Click Select specific data.
- Select the specific data you want to download.
- Click OK.
- Click Next.
- Choose a file type.
- Choose how you want your data delivered.
- Click Create archive.
Cheers!
