I speak a lot about Google+ as a tool for business. In fact I’ve just written a book called “ Google+ for Business Tweet ” and I’m presenting a second Focus.com Roundtable in February. “Find me on Google+ at Google.com/SocialMediaCoach ” would be one thing. And there you’d be mistaken.

If you’re as into social media networks as I am you’d have to have your head in the sand to miss the launch of Google+ , a shiny new social network from Google. Adding the “ Authorship&# tag &# to syndicated posts will allow users to follow specific authors and list your content on the +1 tab of your Google profile.

There’s been a lot of noise about Google+. Personally I’ve got a love/hate relationship with Google+. I’ve noted before that the Google+ Business pages may not be for all brands, some have built their Google+ pages and done quite well, but maybe not well enough to ax that Facebook page just yet.

I don’t know about you but I’ve gotten more than a dozen invitations to Google+ communities in the last couple of days. In case you’re not aware of what that means, Google+ launched a new feature, Google+ Communities on Dec 6. Add to that the very important fact that anyone can create a Google+ Community.

A page doesn’t get notifications by email, text or in the Google+ bar, so it’s hard to keep on top of your discussions. Unless you’re a big brand with Google Direct Connect you don’t own the page name. If that person leaves the company they still “own” the page. Apply here. Macy’s.

Engineering Manager, LinkedIn. You can learn a lot about an industry and a company by doing searches and creating lists around your areas of interest. When your position changes within the company or a friend’s position changes, that’s a good time to reach out to people for recommendations and/or support them. Internal networks.
