When you edit your Blogger profile, Blogger shows a message at the top of the page that says: “Connect Blogger to Google+: Use your Google profile and get access to upcoming Google+ features on Blogger“. Unfortunately, the links seem to be broken, but both URLs reference profile switching.
It’s obvious that Blogger profiles will be discontinued and replaced by Google Profiles, but it’s not clear how Blogger will integrate with Google+. Maybe Blogger posts will automatically trigger Google+ posts and Blogger/Google+ comments will be synchronized. Friend Connect will be discontinued and Google+ could replace it. Friend Connect’s goal was to “help site owners easily provide social features for their visitors. Users gain the ability to sign in to, make friends on, and interact with your site, making it more social and more dynamic”. It wasn’t successful, but Google+ has a better chance to make Blogger more social.
