OpenID 2.0 for Google Accounts is going away, migrate to Google+ sign in

Hey guys, if you are among the one billion people using OpenID for Google to login to your favourite websites, I would advise you move over to Google Plus sign in parmenately , which uses OAuth 2.0 login(OpenID connect). That is because I just got know that OpenID will no longer work for Google accounts, as from April 10, 2015. Google has deprecated OpenID and will shut down next year. Developers are advised to migrate their apps  by the shut down date. For more information visit https://developers.google.com/+/api/auth-migration#timetable
