Google is planning to separate Google+ Photos from the rest of its social network in an effort to draw more users toward the photo platform, sources recently told Bloomberg.
The goal would be to make the photo service more independent, so that the service can still be used without a Google+ profile.
According to the Bloomberg report, Google seems to give its photos service a more independent role and will allow non-Google+ users to use the photo services. The service, called Google+ photos, would still work with the social network’s users and may be rebranded as partof the move.
The report quotes, The world’s larget search engine grappling with competition from Facebook, Twitter and Yahoo! Inc., is freeing up services from Google+ after spending the past few years encouraging visitors to sign up for the social network. Recently, Google enabled the social network’s Hangouts videoconferencing feature to work for some business customers who aren’t users of Google+.
Google said in an e-mailed statement to Bloomberg, “Over here in our darkroom, we’re always developing new ways for people to snap, share and say cheese.”
