Are you going to lose your Google Photos?

Google recently contacted many of you regarding the elimination of your personal Google+ account.  The Subject Line of the email was probably: "Your personal Google+ account is going away on April 2, 2019."

Several of you have asked me if that means you are going to lose the photos you have uploaded to Google as a backup.  The answer is NO, nothing is going to happen to your photos.  They are safe.

About 8 years ago Google launched Google+.  It was a social media platform meant to rival Facebook and Twitter.  However, it never really took off and most of you never used it.  This article does a pretty good job of explaining it.
