Google Plus – what they’re saying about it
There's been a lot of talk about Google Plus in the Twitter- and Blogosphere. I haven't had much time to really explore it, let alone comment on it, but I've been making a note of useful resources to come back to. In case you're in the same position, or missed all the hoo-ha, here are a few blog posts on the subject that look useful:
Nice intro and background to Google Plus from Mashable, with a list of related articles..
Darren Rowse of Problogger suggests some reasons Why Bloggers Should Engage on Google+ …
Interesting Q & A on the subject of Google Plus, including what it offers (or might offer) small businesses…from Hartford Business Journal Online.
Finding the good stuff on the web is not intuitive
I was having a conversation with my brother-in-law at the weekend, and he became quite heated on the subject of the internet and how frustrated he gets when looking for information – which is the reason why he says he had little time for the internet and searching through the rubbish to find the good stuff.
My feeling was that his reluctance to search the web meant that he was relatively inexperienced at it, which was part of the reason why he wasn't finding the stuff he wanted.
Blogging platforms – the good, the bad …
I'm currently working on a book about blogging. Pretty ironic really, because writing about blogging has taken my attention away from my own blog. I'm in a kind of blogging meta-state.
Anyway, I've lifted my head above the parapet to ask you a question – what's your favourite blog platform, and why?
I'm thinking about this a lot – my main website is on WordPress, as are most of my clients' blogs. But Eggblogg is on Typepad. I also have personal blogs on Blogger and a proto-blog on Tumblr which at the moment serves simply as a glorified business card.
