So far I like it, but I've reached a point where I'm overwhelmed on Facebook and hiding people left and right so I don't have to get their five billion updates anymore.<br /><br /><a href="http://kmdlifeisgood.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow"> Tina @ Life is Good</a><br />and I are joining forces in a followup A to Z challenge.

So the person posting probably doesn't realise that's happening.<br /><br />Suze, I don't think that's the idea. It is a form of micro-bogging, but all your google accounts are in your profile and you can switch from blogger to mail to google plus easily. It's more of a replacement for Facebook and Twitter, it kind of combines those two.<br /><br />Carla, I've only just joined google plus myself, I knew about it but didn't think it would take off at first.<br /><br />Hart, I think Facebook will be around for a long time yet but slowly people will drop off it. I had two accounts two but found it too hard to remember to update both.<br /><br />Jolene, I was just using it for friends and then started using it for writing only about 3 months ago - now I feel like I'm starting all over again with google plus - but I do feel like it's necessary for new writers to get info out about their writing.Charmaine Clancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18059559142070140041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2774506789160968096.post-31015735229815874682011-07-30T07:52:55.084+10:002011-07-30T07:52:55.084+10:00Still haven't decided about G+ yet.

So far from the reviews from people who've tried it, it seems like more of the same, just with better compartmentalisation. <br /><br />mood<br /><a href="http://moodywriting.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Moody Writing</a><br /><a href="http://twitter.com/mooderino" rel="nofollow">@mooderino</a>mooderinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01523337588830695638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2774506789160968096.post-58286132148197480492011-07-30T04:46:35.222+10:002011-07-30T04:46:35.222+10:00I'm not crazy about facebook, but I sort of us...I'm not crazy about facebook, but I sort of use it.<br /><br />I'm still waiting for google + ... we'll see...Jolene Perryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14809468564016928636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2774506789160968096.post-69871855209063375472011-07-30T02:58:06.548+10:002011-07-30T02:58:06.548+10:00I don't find it as user friendly as FB, and I ...I don't find it as user friendly as FB, and I don't think it competes with blogger, but I do like the selecting who to share with.
