According to Bloomberg, the search giant wants to spin out Google+ Photos as a separate site. Despite the fact that Google+ has over 500 million registered users, it is the social network that gets the most criticism and some of it is deserved. According to Bloomberg, which spoke to people with knowledge of the matter, separating the image sharing element from the rest of Google+ would help to attract people who dont already have a Google+ account. In Snapseed, Google already has an excellent offline competitor to Instagram.
