How to Manage Google+ Circles! Here is How I Do It! | GooglePlus Expertise | Scoop.it

What are ‘Google Circles’?

On Google+ we use circles to connect to each other. Circles make it easy to choose exactly who can and can’t see what you post to Google+. Circles are not just for people you know. You can also use circles to connect to people to keep up with people who shares subject that you’re interested in.

Why Google Drive Has Become Microsoft’s Worst Nightmare (GOOG, MSFT)

Why Google Drive Has Become Microsoft’s Worst Nightmare (GOOG, MSFT) | GooglePlus Expertise | Scoop.it
Google’s family of cloud-based apps have become essential tools for everyday productivity for many people.
Jaana Nyström's insight:

I use Chrome and Drive on my iMac, WIN8 laptop, Chromebook, MacBook Pro and also when mobile on a Galaxy tab.

Would not change back to MS Office, ever.

 

Google doesn't have to create blackballing campaigns like poor, worried Microsoft; because Google's products speak for themselves.

They are better, period.

Why I Decided To Be On Google Plus

Why I Decided To Be On Google Plus | GooglePlus Expertise | Scoop.it

Lately, I am seeing less engagement on Facebook and more people setting up Google plus profiles. Google plus which was introduced in 2011 June is now the world’s second largest social network after Facebook with 500 Million users.

 

But should you join Google plus just because more people are using it? Why should you pay attention to G plus? And what are so many people using it now?

Jaana Nyström's insight:

Communities need your presence!

Jaana Nyström's insight:

New in Gmail:

"You're probably used to downloading email attachments, but each of those files takes time to download, eats up space on your device, and can get buried deep inside your "Downloads" folder.


With latest update to Gmail, you can skip that whole process. Instead, you can view attachments and save files directly to Google Drive without ever leaving Gmail, making it easy to access them later from whatever device you’re on—computer, phone or tablet."

Google Plus – Why Google+ is important & how to use it | Certified Hosting Blog | GooglePlus Expertise | Scoop.it

Everyone loves to bash Google+ for not being as popular as Facebook or Twitter.

Well, folks, I have news for you: Google Plus has been on a slow roast for some time, during which it has been changing the Internet recipe (it’s a dish and a chef: deal with it) whether we are aware of it or not.

 

Beyond that, the temperature of the burner has been slowly rising. The Internet is a lobster (that’s what was roasting, I guess). Get ready to watch it scream. Oh, Facebook and Twitter are also lobsters. Possibly I am also a lobster...

Online audiences of value are earned, not gotten

Online audiences of value are earned, not gotten | GooglePlus Expertise | Scoop.it
Evaluate your social media strategy and how you're building your audience by earning their trust, building your reputation, and establishing authority.
Jaana Nyström's insight:

I like this:

 

"Abide by the 90-10 rule
The 90-10 rule basically is that 90% of everything that you publish on social media should be valuable to your target market with no sales pitches or promotion, simply cultivating value. Only after you've cultivated that value with 90% of your content can you consider pitching your own in that 10% that remains. Any more than that and you'll come across as one-sided and talking at your audience as opposed to with your audience."
