All google services would be renamed as Google products, Mashable report says.Google is not closing its Blogger and Picasa ,but they would experience a change in the name. Blogger would be renamed as Google Blogs and Picasa as Google Photos.YouTube will not suffer a name change.
This name change will take place in a month or a half more.The Google+ will also be available to the public around the same time ,that is, on or before 31st of July.
