Over the past decade, YouTube, Blogger and Google+ have taken off, with communities springing up in every corner of the world.

Until then, there will be no impact on you, so you may have time to manage the transition. You can export your profile data, community posts and photos using<a href="https://support.google.com/orkut/answer/3220186" style="color: #0000cc;" target="_blank">Google Takeout </a>(available until September 2016). We are preserving an archive of all public communities, which will be available online starting September 30, 2014. If you don't want your posts or name to be included in the community archive, you can remove Orkut permanently from your Google account.
