Google Plus is Eating Startups Google Plus, the ambitious company-wide social network launched late last month, was reportedly built in secret over an extended period of time by scores of engineers and social software designers brought into the company through a campaign of heavy hiring. The scope of Plus’s ambition is far from fully realized, though, and apparently the expansion of the team isn’t complete yet either. This morning a well-backed little startup called The Fridge announced that it has been acquired by Google and will close its group sharing app up to work on something similar at Plus. It was the second little startup like it to be acquired by Google in the last two days: yesterday YCombinator alum Scoopler/Just Spotted announced the same thing. Did these little startups show promise and get multi-million dollar signing bonuses, effectively, as acquisition/hires? “Right now, Google Plus is asymmetric,” Fridge founder Austin Chang told Business Insider.
Cambiar el Fondo de Google Plus Hoy os traemos una aplicación nueva que le gustará a todos aquellos que les guste “tunear” sus perfiles. Se trata de Themes for Google Plus, una extensión para Google Chrome que nos permitirá cambiar el fondo de Google Plus a nuestro antojo. Podemos seleccionar imágenes de la galería de la página oficial de la extensión (algunas no funcionan) e incluso subir nuestras propias fotos a la web para establecerlas como fondo de nuestro G+. Una vez instalado, desde nuestro perfil de Google Plus veremos en la esquina inferior izquierda una pestaña llamada “Change background” donde, al hacer click, podremos personalizar nuestro fondo. Ojo! Esto no es como en Twitter donde nosotros modificamos el diseño y después quienquiera que entre en nuestro perfil así lo verá. Link | Chrome Web Store No hay articulos de Google+ relacionados.
The birth of the ‘Alive Web’ Edit Note: this column originally appeared on the Namesake blog, but is reprinted in full here. This morning I awoke to an email newsletter in my inbox from Om Malik. The title of his post said it all, “Say hello to the alive web!” For the past year I’ve been thinking deeply about this concept as it relates to Namesake and the consumer Internet as a whole. I believe we’re at the beginning of an exciting shift in how we experience and socialize around content. First, let’s look at the evolution of the Web in a very simplistic fashion: we started with static, yet beautifully hyperlinked pages. The “Alive Web” is about to completely displace the way we’ve previously experienced content, community and media. Each and every data source will soon be mashed up and re-framed as a social object. So what’s changed, you ask? What’s also important to me is the impact these trends will have on culture. Brian Norgard is founder and product lead of Namesake, a real-time conversation community.

Using Twitter as Your Database For the 2010 election, we built a continuously updated election guide that let readers explore data related to each of the 509 congressional and gubernatorial races. After adding candidate information, race ratings, polls, election forecasts, campaign finance numbers and historical election results, we wanted a way for our political reporters to contribute live updates. We imagined them writing short news items and finding links to related stories from The New York Times and other sources, so that each page would reflect the most recent developments in that contest. Normally, this would involve building a small content management system — setting up a database and building an interface where a reporter could post an update, associate it with a specific race and add related links. We’d have to show reporters how to use it, and, once we launched, remind them to post regularly. But we realized there was already a CMS of sorts that had all the functionality we needed. Storing user data
How to : Clone a Circle in Google+ Google is one such ruler and history maker in Internet from the day they started working on their search engine. They never stopped bringing some or other innovative products into market. Well as everyone even Google had lots of ups and downs which can be ignored because of their dedication and hard-work behind them. Well as you all know we got a yet another Social Networking site in market just two days back and yes, it by Mr. Google+ is still under testing and available for only small set of initial users. Once we got an invite we started exploring more about Google+ and got an amazing trick to invite others without any invite button!

Clone your Circle Cloning your circle is decently faster than copying members from one group to another in Facebook.

Asking Twitter To Commit Suicide With A Google+ Dagger Sometimes, it’s easy for power users to get drunk on that power. I’m as guilty of this as anyone. When I constantly bitch that my Gmail account is SO DAMN SLOW, I forget that I also have a full 20 GB of email — something which Google PR always kindly reminds me is not normal. Anyway, Scoble is the king of power using a product to its breaking point and then complaining about it. In a post entitled, “Google+ has made Twitter boring, here’s what Twitter should do about that“, Scoble goes on a long-ish rant about what features Twitter needs to add immediately to compete with the just-launched Google+. Put more bluntly: if Twitter is batshit crazy enough to implement even half of the things that Scoble lays out, they will effectively kill their own product. Of course, we can rest-assured knowing that Twitter is very likely not this foolish. That’s not to say Twitter should not add new functionality or improve upon their service. Twitter is not Google+. “First Experience” “Pictures & Videos”
Gérer ses Cercles Google Plus L’un des gros apports du service Google+ est évidemment de pouvoir créer ces cercles de personnes afin de leur partager du contenu spécifique. Finit donc de partager son ennui au travail ou ses photos bourré avec tous vos contacts … dont votre patron que vous avez malencontreusement accepté parmi vos amis Facebook ;) Par contre avec Google+ c’est VOUS qui placez les gens dans des groupes thématiques que vous avez choisit. La personne ne choisit pas de refuser dés le départ vos partages, elle ne peut le faire qu’en vous bloquant par la suite. C’est très différent puisque vous êtes quasiment seul maître des destinataires à qui vous envoyez. En effet, comment savoir que Bidule et Machin vont être intéressés par tel ou tel contenu? Avec Google+ c’est vous qui décidez quel contenu vous pousser vers qui, donc si vous ne connaissez pas forcément les gens à vous de choisir : Famille/Amis Belgique : pour partager des choses persos de ma vie en France, prendre des nouvelles, etc.
Peer Index vs. Klout I’ve just learned about a new influence measurement tool called Peer Index. It is attempting to “help you discover the authorities and opinion formers on a given topic.” It’s pretty interesting because it allows you to search by topic, by person, by region, and by sources (i.e. blogs, social, etc.). Say, for instance, I want to know who the authority is on tree frogs in Singapore, I can search that term and find 10 people who might fit my needs. I take a look at Tree Frog Treks, because they have the highest peer index, to see if they have anything that might behoove my client who sells tree frog food. Turns out, they are a “wild science adventure” camp for kids in the Bay Area. Now, let’s say, I want to do the same thing on Klout. So far, so good. Now, let’s say I want to find public relations professionals in Chicago. But, I can go through the back door, find a person (me) who talks about public relations and click on the topic from there. Lo and behold, it gives me the top five results.
How to Customize Google+ Not crazy about Google's design choices for Google+? Using scripts for Greasemonkey, Extensions for Chrome, Firefox Add-ons, and other browser plug-ins, you can make some pretty wild changes to the look and feel of the site. You can also take a more utilitarian route and take advantage of code that can translate posts from directly within Google+ or port all your Facebook photos to Google+ Photo (i.e., Picasa), where storage is virtually unlimited if you have a Google+ account (photos 2048 x 2048 pixels and smaller don't count toward your 1GB allowance). Check out these 16 scripts and tools that modify or enhance Google+ 1. Google Plus Header Hider (Mozilla) hides the black bar at the top of the screen. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 12. 13.
