The Value of Being Participatory on Google Plus

It's exactly the value of being participatory on Google plus that I want to talk about today. Through because it is through participation on Google plus, you get to be everywhere you have to be. You don't just limit yourself to participating only on Twitter or Facebook, where everyone else seems to be doing everything. Participating on Google plus allows you to reach a much wider audience and engage with people from all over the world.

I like Google plus because it is a good place to be if you want to build your personal brand. With over 375,000 people who have circled me, which is great, I don't think everyone's looking at what I'm doing. But that's kind of depressing but at least I know there's promise in a future for what happens on Google plus today. Everything I'm doing today should play into what happens in the future so why not do it.

I've told you guys and encouraged you to plus one the things that you like, because when we do those things on YouTube plus, it is going to bring more content to lo.com, potentially other content you have no connection with. But if there's a future for Google plus, then I don't think this network is the answer It's thenetwork It's thenetwork It's the social network as crossed over I don't to I know I'm repeating said, this video do people see videos like this on Google plus? You guys may have a completely different answer and you're entitled to your own opinion.

You're more than welcome to share with your own opinion or share it on Facebook or Twitter or don't share it at all keep your thoughts to yourself although most of the world doesn't work that way least not the day and agal media but you, you have completely different. I would and that's cool even if we disagree.

Why does participating in Google plus make me feel more like I'm accomplishing something?
