Google+ is opening its door to teenagers. If you’re between 13 to 18 years old, Google+ will provide certain safety measures to prevent you from over-sharing your information. The precautions include warning messages about posting publicly and preventing strangers from joining video hangouts. In other news, while AT&T added over 700,000 new subscribers in the fourth quarter of last year, it still suffered tremendous losses. The company took a huge hit following its failed merger with T-Mobile. After a $4 billion break-up fee, AT&T ended up losing $6.7 billion last quarter.

Once the king of videogames, Nintendo is really struggling to keep up with its competition. The company said it expects to post a loss of over $800 million by March.
