Anyone ever heard of Google+? Apparently, it is a fairly new social networking site (launched June of 2011). There is an article in PC World which does a comparison between Google+ and Facebook. They outline some of the +'s (pun intended!) as follows:
- Integration with all the other Google sites, such as Gmail, Docs, Search, etc.
- Better Mobile App for Android Users
- Easier to find stuff to share (through a search engine feature known as Sparks)
- Google is a better Steward of Your Personal Data
- Better Photo Tagging (When you tag someone you see this note: Adding this tag will notify the person you have tagged.)
They certainly make it sound enticing to switch from Facebook, but the most compelling reason not to switch would be: Who would my "friends" be?!
I definitely think it deserves a "look-see". Check out the following article
or do your own research and LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK.
Denise, I opened an account with Google+ but I don't know anyone else who has one. Because of that, I have stuck with facebook. I really do need to do more investigating on what I can do with it that I cannot do on facebook.
ReplyDeleteKinda what I was thinking Deb. Doesn't matter how good it is if none of your friends are using it!
