The Plusone highlights and why you should make them private on Google+

I have been studying and researching the topic for a long time now.
What seemed like a great idea in the beginning has really lost its taste for countless users.

Updates and changes, some good and some really bad.  Why did the Photos team have to remove the Creative Kit photo editor first from Google+ and now from Picasa?

Couldn't the (to me useless) Snapseed thingy be used in mobile Google+ apps only?
There are still some people who actually use a camera instead of a mobile device for shooting photos. Not all have Photoshop, either...  Well, back to the Gimp.

Your backups live here  and your deleted photos live here in the trash, for 60 days. 



Our most popular Google+ posts in November 2013

Here is a collection of the six most clicked through posts from the +Gplus Expertise page!
I often use Bufferapp to schedule posts on Google+ business pages, because 24/7 presence is impossible and I do have a major part of my followers in far away time zones.  Another good reason is the analytics I get for each post.
+Buffer makes the task easy!
