Google Currents replacing Google Plus next month
Soon afterwards, Currents was unveiled, with the aim to enable employees to communicate meaningfully with each other.
Google Plus for G Suite posts will be migrated to Currents automatically. Similarly, all the URLs will be redirected to Currents.
Google Plus reincarnated?
In essence, Currents is a Google Plus for G Suite replacement. It has received a facelift and some new features. The interface currently includes a home stream which you can sort chronologically or by relevance. Like other social networking platforms, it lets you share text, images, links, and polls, as well as content from Google Drive.
Admins will also be able to moderate content, measure engagements, and uncover meaningful insights.
Provided that they have been granted permission by their G Suite administrators, all G Suite users can now access Currents.
It remains to be seen if Currents will fare better than Google Plus and whether it’s actually a precursor to something greater.
