    Wow, didn’t realize that difference with google and facebook.

      If you are referring to circles…(?). You aren’t alone, takes a while to get your head around the possibilities they bring. Likely be sharing more on that functionality going forward.

    Holy cow, does google own that many sites and service?

    • http://www.MarketingProfessor.com Travis Campbell

      Hard for even someone like me to keep up with them. Brings home the magnitude of possibilities with Google+. They have their work cut out for them.

    In my personal life, I am a regular user of a couple of journaling sites which allow me to post with a circles function — and it’s the thing I love best about them. I decide which group of people gets to see which content. If Google+ can do that, it just might eat Facebook’s lunch (or force Facebook to change).

      Interesting Tracie. Sounds like you’ve been *pretrained* to make use of Google+ quickly.

        Perhaps, yet I’m also so deluged with the Latest Shiny Social Networking Thing that I haven’t even looked at Google+ yet. I don’t really have time to learn another new platform right now. And on that note — I have to get back to the commission on my easel. :-)

          Your personal discipline is only superceeded by the caliber of your artwork! :-) Have a great weekend.

            Oh, thank you. I’m working from the Tiny Apartment Studio today (since the space I rent is sweltering right now) and there is about 36″ space between easel and Macintosh. This is both a good thing, and not.

    Facebook actually has it’s own “Circles” feature – I’ve been using it for years. It’s called Friend Lists and it works in much the same way. The only problem is, it’s not easily found or managed.

    Google+ realized this and took advantage. I’m a big fan of the concept of Friend Lists/Circles and it’s nice to see Google making it a main feature. And it’s always great to have an Epipheo to promote it with :)

    P.S. Travis, I like the new site design – it looks great!

    The idea that because I use Google for search and email means I will eventually use G+ is preposterous. 

    How long will it be until Facebook has something similar to circles? Not long I bet.

    Google plus right now is living on a “high”. It’s a new gadget and we all know that the gadget geeks love new gadgets regardless of what they do.

    I’m no fan boy for Google or Facebook.  They are a means to connect to others.  I don’t feel a need to convince anyone to use one or the other or both. When the people who I want to connect with are on Google plus then you will see me on there. One thing is for certain, I will not be double posting to Facebook and G+.

    Travis – can you confirm that it’s not possible to add a Google+ button to an HTML newsletter (because it requires JavaScript)?
