Google is reportedly going to launch a new online photo-sharing service and storage option at its developer conference later this month, which Bloomberg says, will not be a part of its Google+ social network.

At the moment, Google offers a photo sharing service known as "Google+ Photos," which comes pre-installed with every Android device. Google+ Photos automatically backs up photos in the device to Google cloud storage.

However, the new photo service will not be a part of Google+ network. It seems like the company’s attempts to bolster its product lineup and compete with the increasingly popular rivals like Facebook or Twitter to grow its user base.

How to convert your Facebook page into a website

A new experimental app leverages the potential your Facebook page holds and helps you turn it into a full-fledged website.

The new app, dubbed Pager, helps local businesses get easy presence on the Web by simply using their Facebook page and turning it into a traditional website.

One of the three engineers who have developed the app, Darrel-Day Guerrero says that the idea behind the app is to allow small businesses who use Facebook to manage a website easily, TechCrunch report notes.

Pager is one simple app to use. All one needs to do is log in using the Facebook account and a list of the pages maintained by the account holder pops up. Just pick a page, save, and the website is automatically live.

The information from the Facebook page is sorted into four categories - About, News, Events and Galleries. The About page is supposed to present all your business's contact info and opening hours, the news page displays your wall posts, and events and galleries are pretty self-explanatory.

The app is still in the making and the team is hopeful of making everything work leveraging the Facebook API.
