A Day With Google+: They Finally Got it Right

A Day With Google+: They Finally Got it Right Yesterday was a big day for Google. The company launched a wave of new and updated products, but the focus was clearly on the (unexpected) launch of Google+ . http://siliconfilter.com/a-day-with-google-they-finally-got-it-right/
