Open content is content that is also available openly.

The short: people claiming they don't blog anymore but write lengthy on the closed Google+, a platform that is closed (does not allow to pull the content of RSS), discriminate on names, and in the end just represent the Google black hole as it seems only Google fanboys and employees use it.

This also applies to Facebook, Twitter (to a lesser extent, just because of the 140 char limits) and so on.

Sorry this is not the Internet I want. It is 2014, time to take it back.
