I want Facebook OFF my phone, not built into it! 

If Facebook disrespects your privacy when you put the app on your phone, can you imagine how they'll try to exploit being in it?

Yes, you can prove you're a complete idiot in an 18 second video clip.

Introducing the Hangouts Capture app: snap & save moments as they happen

Google+ Hangouts bring people together, and when they do, all sorts of awesome can unfold. Maybe it's reading a bedtime story to your grandkids across the country. Maybe it's taking a cooking class from your kitchen. Or maybe it's answering questions from your constituents. We hear lots of great stories (http://goo.gl/ENWXo).

The challenge, oftentimes, is capturing your favorite moments as they happen, so today we're introducing the new Hangouts Capture app. With it you can take pictures of your Hangouts-in-progress, including a number of features not available in the usual screenshot workarounds:

- Once you’ve opened the Hangouts Capture app, you can snap photos of your Hangout view with a single click
- All photos are saved to a shared album, visible only to otherH... more »

Very insightful post from +Jessica Obermayer. 

I'd add too that I won't even visit a Facebook.com/(YOURBRAND) page any longer. If the only place your company exists is there... there are millions of us who won't even consider visiting it.

I'm surprised there are still "social media professionals" out there who still think +Google+ is a copy of Facebook or "just another social network". +Craig Kanalley gets it and helps others understand more of the differences with this piece. 

Which feature or function of Google+ Sign-in do you think is most valuable?

NEW FREE APP - MUST HAVE 

Having worked on a Red Cross Disaster Damage Assessment Team after tornadoes and hurricanes I can't stress enough the value of being prepared and knowing what to do both before and after a storm hits. Along with valuable warnings this app will teach proper things to do to be prepared. Get it, learn it, use it. - Make sure your family and friends do too.

That's what I'm talking about. Now why would Google include LTE in the new #Pixel  but not in the new Galaxy Nexus phone? I so wanted to go with the Nexus for the pure Android experience but looks like I'll be going Samsung (S4?) soon.

Google Plus: Strategic, Synergistic, Awesome and About There

Phenomenal read on just how well Plus is integrating services across Google and enticing users with carrots. Regardless of your role in your business, you'll get some value out of this article.

I guess we're not a ghost town any longer.

Excerpted:

Despite being an echo chamber as far as the press was concerned only two months ago, now Google Plus is “bigger than Twitter,” according to many of the same media outlets. That might not feel true today, but it will in short order.

A month ago, I wrote about how no one was willing to admit that Google Plus’s user acquisition strategy of using the carrot and not the stick was… well, working. Well enough so that I was willing to gamble a pie in the face on it. Google began by absorbing 100% of online writers by way of offeringthem th... more »

Maybe +The Huffington Post has missed the point. They say "Quitting Facebook is cool, but, like popping your collar or wearing a fedora, you'll probably look ridiculous to all but a select group." but don't mention the hundreds of millions of active users on +Google+ who may represent the earliest Facebook members who made it popular then became disenchanted with it's sleight of hand privacy policy changes and disrespect of member feedback. 

If you've not quit and it's because your family or friends are there, what does this really say about your relationships? Does that mean they don't feel you worth an email, phone call or visit to Google+ to contact you through your profile page? 

Whether you have or haven't quit, please tell us why.

RUL Recommended Users List to follow. A completely new concept of bringing you in touch with 500 profiles who make a difference to your steam.

If I have to put my own preferences and friends in every circle I am sharing the same circle over and over. Too many friends.

How?
Please read the note below.

Support:
To become a successful circle I need your support!
If you add or check out you will find many interesting profiles. Promise!
If you are in or not but share, others get the chance to check this out.
If you are in and share more people will know and follow you.

To improve the algorithm I need your feed back! Please!!!

Youtube has "hidden" the view count for Hangouts on Air. Or so it seems hidden, but there are 3 ways a person can find the HoA view count even though they do not own the Youtube channel the HoA is hosted on.

Did You Know Recurring Insomnia Ages You?  And Worse?  Causes of Insomnia - And Ways to Get to Sleep Without Drugging Yourself .

Most sleep aids are problematic, other than when used for a short-term need.  Yet, for more and more of us in our stress-filled lives, insomnia can, unchecked, become a vicious circle:

Insomnia involves dysfunction with cortisol, serotonin, melatonin, and even the adrenal glands, in some instances.  When unchecked, recurring insomnia can get worse and worse as cortisol levels get out of whack and we get completely out of sync with our natural circadian rhythms.

There have been countless studies of health care problems and mortality events (onset of cancer, etc.) for night-shift workers.  *It ends up that working against your circadian rhythm - how we were designed to wake/sleep around the sun - will work against you.  Sooner orlater... more »

Go paperless in 2013

It’s a new year, which means new resolutions. If you’re up for saving time, money and trees, going paperless might be a good goal for you in 2013. 

Google Drive is part of the Paperless Coalition, a group of organizations and products that help you live completely in a paper-free world. Drive makes it easy to keep all your stuff in the cloud and access it anywhere -- so you don’t have to carry around paper copies wherever you go. And if you use paper to fax documents, print receipts, track expense reports or jot notes -- the Paperless Coalition has apps to help with that, too. 

Take the pledge at www.Paperless2013.org and invite others to do the same. Happy New Year!
