| Google is a social media addict and it has fallen off the wagon again
|
| Googlers just don't know when to give up when it comes to social media as the internet giant attempts to crack the market once again with Shoelace. It's been almost six months since the team decided to shut-down Google+ but the search behemoth hasn't given up just yet.
