It’s launching to the general public soon and after a few weeks of using Google+, Diane Elkins and Judy Unrein got together to share impressions. If I were to start over, I could see using Google+ over Facebook or Twitter. Even if Google+ does have its advantages, it is only useful if the people you want to connect with are there. JU: And soon Google+ will open up publicly, so a lot more people will be there. Everyone who uses Gmail, YouTube, Google Docs, or any of their other services already has a Google account. | | | | | | | IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CURVE SEPTEMBER 4, 2012 Ad Hoc Live Streaming Test We are starting to see demand for Live Streaming services. We tested 5 tools - Elluminate, Google Hangouts, vTok (for the iPad), UStream, and ooVoo Yes - I know that some of these tools aren't designed to do live streaming, but we had it lying around. And their movie streaming. IT has a project underway that will address that formally. High quality, fancy equipment and all that. This is not that project.

LEARNING DEVELOPMENTS | THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 2011 My Experience Starting Out with Google+ I got my Google+ invite back in July (Thanks Derek) but it's been quite a busy summer so I put off getting to know Google+ until now. Being the big Google/Android fan I am, this is long overdue. You can get to Google+ by going to [link].
