I've started using Google+, so far to me it basically seems like Google's Facebook, but with better privacy controls. I started using Facebook at RIT, before it was open to high schools or the public. It's different now, with games and advertisements galore. I wonder what Google+ will look like in a few years. For now, it's very nice. My profile is at https://plus.google.com/117878878006885806401/about. I grabbed an image (which had a very permissive license) from http://theoatmeal.com/comics/state_web_summer and added text to the sign. You can see it, it's currently my profile picture. Google crops the image a bit, the complete image is https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/c_96Cc1PfGPvxVBfWnNamQ?feat=directlink. |
