| Will g+ eliminate the competition #angrybirds style? |
In my quest to stay relevant on the social media scene, I decided to check out Google Plus . Google Plus has been buzzing in the recent weeks and I had to see for myself if this social media outlet was worth it's salt - as if we don't have enough already! I can hardly keep up with my Twitter account but curiosity always gets the best of me.
Without a doubt, Google is a powerhouse as the go-to search engine and the many other great services they have to offer which include eblogger that supports this blog:) Besides Google Buzz which didn't garner a huge response, they hardly steer you wrong.
When I initially tried to sign up for google+ I got a rather rude (not really but I am sensitive) message stating that I had to wait for an invitation to become part of this 'exclusive' club! Wasn't my google account enough?! Way to exclude an important member of the cyber community! Jk! Well, just recently my long awaited invitation finally came. I signed on immediately and started to form my social circles. Cool kids club here I come!
While it seemed slightly familiar with Facebook, I felt like the new kid at school - no friends and trying desperately to fit it. Lucky for me a cheat sheet was provided by one of my tech savvy friends. Click here for the cheat sheet. Trust me, if you are anything like me it will come in handy for tips and tricks. I like google+ so far but I am still waiting for the spark that will keep me coming back. I am yet to try the mobile web app.
This morning it was announced that google+ now has 20 million members and growing!! It is yet to be determined whether it will be a force against the social media giant that is Facebook. Only time will tell.
