I am trying again to establish a viable web business. Unfortunately, Twitter killed my primary account @ptaylor98, where I had organically built over 10,000 followers--an excellent lead list. Now I am rebuilding and diversifying my Twitter accounts @barzane and pltaylor98 (renamed now). I am going to experiment with various blogs to see which will get the best response. Lots of work to do!

Google+, although still in beta, has been released, and many are checking it out, including me. The first thing I noticed about G+ is its simplicity; no games, no ads, no diversions from plain old posting and reading. The next thing I noticed were the "circles" wher I could categorize and group my family, friends, acquaintences, and just those I follow. The ability to follow these as a 'stream' is extermely useful in preventing drowning in the'stream.'  I use lists in Twitter for the same purpose, but G+ circles are easier to create and use. Finally, so far, G+ allows integration with Twitter. Ultimately, I think G+ will harm Facebook, but it might actually help Twitter. Time will tell. I'll keep playing with it.
